  • Welcome to the European Biosafety Association

    EBSA is the professional association for people working in biosafety and biosecurity. Founded in 1996, we are a not-for-profit forum with 745 members across 56 countries, drawn from healthcare, academia, industry, emergency response and regulatory affairs.

    Our members work wherever biological materials are handled — research laboratories, clinical settings, manufacturing facilities, field operations. What unites them is a commitment to managing biological risk competently and proportionately.
    We support that work through our annual conference, pre-conference courses, online training, EBSA Thursdays, and active working groups. We also engage with European institutions and partner associations so that the perspective of biosafety and biosecurity professionals is heard where it matters.

    Whether you are new to the field or have spent a career in it, EBSA is where you find your colleagues.

  2. 2nd International Conference on Hungarian Biosafety

    Hungarian biosafety has developed significantly in recent years. An important milestone was the I. International Conference on Hungarian Biosafety, held in 2025. The event successfully brought together members of the Hungarian and international professional communities and increased the international visibility of biosafety efforts in Hungary and across the region.  Building on this success, we are organizing the II. International Conference on Hungarian Biosafety – 2nd ICHuB . Our goal is to further strengthen this professional community, support the sharing of knowledge and experience, and create new opportunities for cooperation and development for professionals and organizations interested in biosafety.  Let us continue this work together for a safer future!
