Building a Synchronized Oscillatory System

Biosafety and biosecurity considerations

Does your institution have its own biosafety rules and if so what are they?

Wageningen UR has its own biosafety rules that can be found on [http://www.wageningenuniversity.nl/UK/informationfor/Current+students/Student+information/healthsafety/Laboratory+general/?wbc_purpose=basic#basic this page].

Did you receive any biosafety and/or lab training before beginning your project?

Next to the biosafety rules from Wageningen UR, techniques for working aseptically to perform Good Microbial Practices are generally learned in a Microbiology introductory course.

Does your institution have an Institutional Biosafety Committee or equivalent group?

Instead of having a Biosafety Board at Wageningen UR, all chair groups of the institution have their own Biosafety officer(s) (Biologische veiligheidsfunctionaris[sen] in Dutch). We have discussed our project with Hauke Smidt, the Biosafety officer for our project. The [http://bggo.rivm.nl/Paginas/bch.htm Biosafety Clearing House] of the Netherlands handles licenses for genetic modifications, which have to be requested. The Biosafety officer has subscribed our project to the Bacterial Genetics license. We could approach him if there would be any questions.
