Lab Safety

Lab safety is incredibly important to us and is top of mind in everything we do. We have a safety officer to help us to evaluate risks. We have also been among the leaders of the DIY-Bio movement in considering safety issues.

BUGSS is a Biosafety Level 1 lab. Anything not currently in the lab will need to be approved by our Safety officer before being brought into the lab. You can request approval for new things by completing our Safety approval form.
