Biosafety Level 4 Zoonotic Laboratory Network (BSL4ZNet) is a coordinated international alliance of high-containment laboratories
This spring, our BSL4ZNet International Virtual Conference will bring together high‑containment experts for four days of programming across three time zones.
Across the week, sessions will explore cutting‑edge BSL‑4 science, training and human‑centered biosafety, facility design and readiness, and international approaches to decontamination, bioethics, and collaboration. Together, these discussions will highlight shared challenges and innovations shaping the future of global high‑containment research. Check back soon for registration.
Creating opportunities and promoting strategic exchanges. This builds a highly skilled, collaborative workforce ready to respond to emerging International threats.
Fostering collaboration and shared learning across the network. To enhance diagnostic capabilities, drive joint research, and provide collective expertise to inform decision-makers.
The purpose of this working group is to discuss coordinated tactical communications strategies due to the growing prevalence of mis/disinformation and decreased public trust.
Promoting knowledge sharing and collaboration across member organizations. Enabling efficient, exchange of laboratory information and diagnostics.
Enhancing international outbreak preparedness and response through sample sharing, joint exercises, and coordinated surge capacity.
These groups provide opportunities for members to share information on topics of relevance, learn from one another, and participate collectively in ongoing tasks related to the mandate of the organization.
