Online Module

The SERCEB Policy, Ethics and Law Core has developed an online module to assist those involved with the biological sciences in better understanding the "dual-use" dilemma inherent in such research. This module is intended for graduate and post-doctoral students, faculty members, and laboratory technicians involved in biological research in microbiology, molecular genetics, immunology, pathology, and other fields related to emerging infectious disease and biological threats to human, animal, and environmental health. The module consists of a ~20 minute online presentation followed by a brief assessment.
