NIH held its first listening session in support of its new Biosafety Modernization Initiative on September 30, 2025. This was the first in a planned series focused on helping NIH modernize and strengthen biosafety oversight.

The NIH Videocast for that event is now available and can be accessed at: https://videocast.nih.gov/watch=57067. Additionally, stakeholders can embed an NIH Biosafety Widget on their own websites to further encourage comments (more information at: https://osp.od.nih.gov/help-modernize-and-strengthen-the-oversight-of-biosafety/).
