More than 60 participants from almost 30 countries took part and included practicing life scientists, bioethics and biosecurity practitioners, and experts in the design of educational programs. The workshop sought to identify a baseline about (1) the extent to which dual use issues are currently being included in postsecondary education (undergraduate and postgraduate) in the life sciences; (2) in what contexts that education is occurring (e.g., in formal coursework, informal settings, as stand-alone subjects or part of more general training, and in what fields); and (3) what online educational materials addressing research in the life sciences with dual use potential already exist."--Publisher's description.Life sciencesStudy and teachingBioterrorismPreventionBiosecurityBioethicsLife sciencesStudy and teaching.BioterrorismPrevention.Biosecurity.Bioethics.574.07National Research Council (U.S.).Committee on Education on Dual Use Issues in the Life Sciences.National Research Council (U.S.).Board on Life Sciences.National Research Council (U.S.).Division on Earth and Life Studies.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910791828403321Challenges and opportunities for education about dual use issues in the life sciences3694177UNINA
