At the International Biosecurity Symposium 2025, the Biosecurity Office launched a new tool: the Dual-use Infographic.

Recently, it was reported in the news that two researchers in the US are suspected of illegally importing a fungus that can cause significant damage to agricultural crops.

The Biosecurity Office looks back with great enthusiasm on a successful first edition of the International Biosecurity Symposium.

One of the ambitions of the Biosecurity Office is to provide information on biosecurity, including biosecurity and dual-use topics, to students in life sciences throughout their studies.

In the past few years, disinformation has frequently made headlines. Disinformation can be used as a weapon.

The Biosecurity Office regularly attends international meetings with the aim of sharing knowledge, acquiring knowledge, and networking.

There are regular reports being published that also address biosecurity.

Last year, the Biosecurity Office developed the 'Dual-Use Quickscan'. This new online tool has been available in Dutch and English since the spring.

Here we present another current scenario with regard to biosecurity. This time it is a scenario about cyber attacks.

Before the corona crisis, the Biosecurity Office regularly attended meetings abroad with the aim of sharing knowledge, gaining knowledge and networking.
