NIH Biospecimen Security Policy
Webinar Date: January 27, 2026
Webinar Time: 02:00 pm
NIH Policy on Enhancing Security Measures for Human Biospecimens follows a broader federal trend toward tightening physical and operational controls on sensitive personal data, especially in light of DOJ’s bulk-data rule and federal concerns about unauthorized foreign access. This webinar introduces the policy’s rationale, situates it within NIH’s existing data and research-governance framework, and outlines the safeguards NIH now expects from institutions handling human specimens. Attendees will gain a grounded understanding of what the policy covers, why it emerged, and what early steps they should consider.
