IBC Protocol Submissions

IBC Meetings are held on the second Monday of every month. The deadline for protocol submissions is the last Monday of every month.

Please use the new PDF forms for biosafety submissions. You should fill them out and email them to Smitha Moter (Vijayasmitha.Moter@mail.wvu.edu). Each submission will require the basic protocol form, the additional personnel form if appropriate, and at least one form for the specific biohazard(s) you are planning to work with.

You may combine similar items into one form: for example, if you are working with non-hazardous genes in standard E. coli cloning vectors, only one rDNA form is needed. (Hazardous genes include coding sequences for toxin genes, oncogenes, large sections of eukaryotic viruses, and any other genes that are likely to code for dangerous products.) In this case, the work is exempt.

To ensure that all PDF forms can print and save, please use the most recent version of Adobe Reader. Adobe Reader can be downloaded and installed at the following web site: http://get.adobe.com/reader/.

If you have any questions or comments, contact Smitha Moter, 293-7157.
