Biosafety
Mission Statement
The Biosafety Program is a part of the Laboratory Safety Group within Research Compliance & Safety. and is here to be a resource to the research and teaching communities at Tufts University and Tufts Medical Center. Our primary mission is to empower students, faculty, and staff to understand the risks associated with their work and to assist them in implementing the appropriate safety measures to mitigate those risks. Ultimately, our goal is to maintain a healthy and productive work environment.
We work closely with our partners at Tufts University and Tufts Medical Center to ensure that any work associated with biohazards and/or recombinant/synthetic nucleic acids is done safely and in accordance with the NIH Guidelines and federal, state, and local regulations.
For any questions, please contact the Biosafety Program at biosafety@tufts.edu.
