On Wednesday 14 May 2025, Bureau Biosecurity will be organising the first international biosecurity symposium. Internationally renowned speakers will talk about biosecurity and dual-use.

As in previous years, the Biosecurity Knowledge Day attracted many enthusiastic participants this year. The Knowledge Day focused a lot on Artificial Intelligence.

During the Biosecurity Knowledge Day, the Biosecurity Escaperoom was launched. In the escaperoom, participants take on the challenge of solving a biosecurity scenario.

In the fall, several publications were published that are important for biosecurity. The Nuclear Threat Initiative (NTI-bio) published a report on the management of risks of biodesign tools.

On September 18, 2023, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will organize an Export Control Seminar at the Ministry.

The Biosecurity Office has updated and translated the combined list of biological agents into English.

When you think of dual-use, you might associate it with research on high-risk pathogens, but have you ever considered that dual-use research could also take place within the informatics department

What can you expect from the Biosecurity Office in the coming year?

The Biosecurity Knowledge Day took place some time ago, but we would like to take a moment to look back on this day.
