BioRisk-S (Biological Risk–Stomatognathic): A Predictive Algorithm for Early Systemic Detection of Stomatognathic Dysfunction [PDF]
BioengineeringBackground: Functional imbalance within the stomatognathic system can develop long before clinical symptoms become evident. Subtle biological changes, such as low-grade inflammation or metabolic disturbance, may precede gingival inflammation ...

Biosafety and Biosecurity: A relative risk-based framework for safer, more secure and sustainable laboratory capacity building [PDF]
Frontiers in Public Health, 2015 Background: Laboratory capacity building is characterized by a paradox between endemicity and resources: Countries with high endemicity of pathogenic agents often have low and intermittent resources (water, electricity) and capacities (laboratories ...

Motivating Proactive Biorisk Management. [PDF]
Health Secur, 2023 Scholars and practitioners of biosafety and biosecurity (collectively, biorisk management or BRM) have argued that life scientists should play a more proactive role in monitoring their work for potential risks, mitigating harm, and seeking help as necessary.

Measures to strengthen international biosafety and biosecurity practices. [PDF]
PLoS BiologyNo matter where they are performed, studies with infectious agents need ironclad biorisk management. This can be promoted through robust gatekeeping of funding and publication, using a new formal reporting standard for pathogen research.

Containment of antimicrobial resistance for strengthening global public health security: Biorisk management perspectives [PDF]
Biosafety and HealthAntimicrobials have been hugely successful in improving health outcomes. However, its positive impact is threatened by worldwide increase of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Use, misuse and overuse are the drivers of AMR.
