In compliance with the U.S. Government Policy for Institutional Oversight of Life Sciences Dual Use Research of Concern, NYU Langone established the Institutional Review Entity, a committee of biosafety experts that oversees a strict dual use research of concern review process for research conducted at NYU Langone. The committee’s review of proposed life sciences research projects minimizes the risk such research may pose if the knowledge, information, products, or technologies it provides are misused. If a research project is identified as dual use research of concern, the committee creates and implements a risk mitigation plan specific to the experiment.
