SUBMITTING NEW PROTOCOLS TO THE IBC


The Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC) at LSUHSC has oversight of all activities involving the use of recombinant or synthetic nucleic acids (r/sNA), pathogens, potentially infectious materials, select and biological toxins, and other biohazards. It is the policy of LSUHSC-NO that all new protocols involving such agents must be presented to the IBC for review and approval prior to implementation. The IBC retains oversight of the project throughout its life cycle, including, but not limited to, review and approval of protocol modifications, annual renewals and reportable events.
