For those who do not have the experience or are not acquainted with the Swedish laws and regulations governing work with infectious substances or GMM, the course “Working with Biorisks: Infectious Substances and Genetically Modified Microorganisms” is held several times each semester, 09:00-16:45 at BMC C6:109a

The course is free of charge for those who work at Uppsala University (2.000:- for external participants), and is primarily aimed at bachelor/master students, Ph.D. students, post-docs, laboratory assistants, and new group leaders. During the course we discuss the organization of Uppsala University, Swedish laws and ordinances, work with infectious substances, waste management, incidents and accidents, practical risk assessments, containment and clean-up of a simulated biological spill, how to handle sharps, and biosecurity. The course is held in English, and comes with complementary “fika” and lunch.

For Uppsala University Ph.D. students the course can often yield ”Ph.D. points”, ask your course administrator if this is the case at your institution. The course is not aimed at students in basic education as it does not yield credits ”högskolepoäng”

Sign-up closes the day before the course date, or when fully booked.

If this course date is under-booked (minimum 3 participants, maximum 7) it will be cancelled and you will be offered another date.

If none of the available dates work then it is sometimes possible for you to gather 3-7 participants and book a separate course date by mailing henrik.gradstedt@uu.se

Additional course dates will be published by mid-October.

On site at BCM C6:109a 09:00-16:45, several times each semester
