SUMMARY:Harvard Yale Biosafety Symposium 2026
DESCRIPTION:Pre-symposium courses on May 4\, 2026 will offer opportunities to gain further understanding of Dual Use Research of Concern (DURC)\, Pathogens with Enhanced Pandemic Potential (PEPP)\, personnel reliability\, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) risks in biosafety and biosecurity. \nThe symposium on May 5\, 2026 will offer talks once again on prominent issues facing Biological Safety and EHS professionals. \nPresentations will cover AI\, risks of Mirror Life cells\, dangerous gain of function (GOF) pathogens and pending or updated regulations\, and guidance for management of everyday bio-risk outside of existing regulatory boundaries. \nAnother interactive session will present\, review\, and discuss mock high-risk protocols in the format of an Institutional Review Entity (IRE) meeting to help attendees address updated or new DURC and PEPP rules.
