The Journal of Biosecurity, Biosafety and Biodefense Law (JBBBL) offers both a legal and scientific perspective on current issues concerning bioterrorism, public health and safety, and national security. Edited by an international board of leading scholars from all the continents, our journal is aware that bioterrorism related issues are global problems. Our goal is to develop a unique international community of legal scholars, scientists and policy experts who will address current issues in these fields.
In working with both the legal and scientific community, we have identified a need for enhanced communication and research between lawmakers and biodefense researchers and safety officers concerning regulations governing Select Agents, and a knowledge gap in the fields of biosafety, biosecurity and biodefense law. This journal bridges that gap by creating a timely, peer-reviewed forum available to the legal community, healthcare professionals, biodefense researchers, scientists and biosafety officers.
