Eastern Kentucky University’s Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC) is a federally mandated review committee which oversees all research involving recombinant deoxyribonucleic acid (rDNA) molecules and the use of microorganisms for biological research. The IBC provides documentation that all EKU faculty, staff, and students who work with rDNA and/or microbes have passed the laboratory safety course offered by the EKU Department of Environmental Health and Safety. All documents will need to be turned in to the Office of Grants and Research Compliance for review and approval.
