Best Practices for Design, Construction & Operation of BSL3, BSL3-Ag and BSL4 Facilities
The increasing risk of life-threatening and agriculture-destroying microbial pathogens is creating an international wave of planning for bio-containment facility construction to house new and expanded research programs at medical, agricultural, pharmaceutical, and national defense research institutions. These growing research programs involve new facility technologies and exacting operational protocols for the safe handling of highly virulent microbial pathogens.
This conference brings together into a single forum the broad spectrum of detailed findings, best practices and mistakes-to-avoid for bio-containment facilities. It will yield updated guidelines and principles for bio-containment facility design, construction and operation with which institutional managers and design consultants need to become familiar.
The focus of this conference is on the details and the “how to’s” for both constructing these types of facilities and operating them. At this conference you’ll hear from the institutions that are building and operating bio-containment facilities and the designers and contractors who are behind the latest facility technologies and safety features and who are working on the latest round of bio-containment facility projects.
Attend this conference to:
1) Learn how these projects are being planned and managed
2) Get the latest standards and details for design and construction
3) Pick up crucial lessons learned
4) Speed up your bio-containment facility project
5) Benchmark your operating plans
6) Meet others who are building and running bio-containment facilities
7) Find out what these facilities are costing to build and operate
8) Learn how to win community support
9) Avoid making costly project mistakes
10) Build a safe facility that works, and do it on time and within budget
The format of this conference allows for all conference participants to see, hear, question and discuss every presentation.
Attend as a team to make this program an integral part of your project planning for high- and maximum-containment research facilities.
I look forward to seeing you in San Antonio!
