Biosecurity Training for Castor and Ricin Toxin Researchers Workshop

Health Security Partners disseminated a request for proposals to 33 participants after the completion of the Biosecurity Training for Castor and Ricin Toxin Researchers Workshop, 16-18 January 2023, in Lagos, Nigeria. Challenge grants will be awarded to 4 workshop participants and will be used to provide step-down training for researchers to raise awareness and share best practices for the biosecurity of toxin materials. Participants are encouraged to write proposals that promote multisectoral efforts, including between law enforcement and civil defense, and to prioritize implementation and sustainability. HSP looks forward to receiving these proposals and working with the awardees to implement their ideas!
