house 03/05/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to establish the Life Sciences Research Security Board through the "Risky Research Review Act," which aims to enhance oversight of federally funded life sciences research. The new independent board will review high-risk research proposals to ensure such work is conducted with safety and security in mind, balancing the potential benefits against possible threats to public health and national security.
