International Veterinary Biosafety Workgroup

Our aim is to promote microbiological biocontainment and safety in veterinary laboratories that have national responsibility for the health of large animals, and which operate at biosafety level 3 or higher.

We are truly international as our members come from a diverse range of agencies all over the world, and have differing responsibilities and skills, including directors, biosafety advisers, biocontainment engineers and so on.
