An Invisible Biosafety/Biosecurity Network Made Visible PandemicTech Podcast

    • Science

Disease testing has never been more a part of our day-to-day lives, just as constant awareness of a worldwide infectious disease threat has never been more a part of our lives. Even with this presence, like me, you might never have thought to look under the hood of the testing process. 
In this episode of the PandemicTech Podcast, we bring you an exploration of biosafety and biosecurity, diagnostic practices that have become intensely personal for all of us over the last twelve months, whether we realized it or not. 
Today, we’ll get to know Luis Ochoa-Carrera and Maureen Ellis, two biosafety and biosecurity specialists who manage the safe handling and process of live infectious disease pathogens like COVID that threaten the safety and health of citizens across the globe.
