Subject Introduction of Biosafety for Scientists
Authors JiYoung Kang
Seoul National University Hospital, Korea
Abstract Due to recent epidemics of infectious diseases and infant deaths due to pathogen spread in hospitals, the area of biosafety has been recognized to extend to the range of all scientists dealing with living organisms, as well as in the area of special researchers studying dangerous infectious diseases.
In particular, the boundaries between the scientific fields have become unclear due to the expansion of researches on fusions between fields rather than individual development. In addition to biologists with pipettes in biological laboratories, research on living organisms is now being carried out in a variety of fields, from chemists, physicists, computer scientists, and statisticians, working together to do image analysis of living cells using advanced instruments and techniques and create big-data.
”Introduction of Biosafety for Scientists" aims to provide insight into the basic knowledge and laws of biosafety required for all scientists working in laboratories with living research organisms.
