From 26th -28th of January 2016 at Cairo Marriott Hotel.

 

Working in the chemical and biological sciences, including university teaching and research, is a hazardous endeavor.  At universities, chemical and biological materials, equipment, and expertise can be targeted by those who would misuse them to harm others.  Individuals at all levels have a role in making sure that chemical and biological safety and security best practices are followed.  The United States Department of State, Chemical Security Program, in cooperation with the Modern University for Technology and Information (MTI) and Sandia National Laboratories, is hosting a three days workshop to cover chemical and biological risk management.

 

The workshop has been tailored for the staff of the Faculty of Pharmacy. This workshop aims at using tools and methods to perform chemical and biological risk assessments, and improve the safety and security of their laboratories.  Because of the global nature of chemistry and biology, international cooperation in chemical and bio-risk management is now more important than ever.
