We are happy to announce that we are once again visiting labs — both in person and virtually! After suspending laboratory visits for a little while during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Office of Biological Safety will resume this practice.
Soon, you may be contacted by the Office of Biological Safety for a visit.
A new laboratory inspection checklist is now available for labs to use in documenting their physical laboratory inspection.
Along with that checklist, a guidance document explains the information behind each question. Check out the Laboratory Inspection Checklist and Guidance document. If you have questions on the checklist or would like to schedule a visit, please reach out to our office at biosafety@fpm.wisc.edu.
We look forward to speaking with your lab!
Sincerely,
Office of Biological Safety
