With the rise of drug-resistant infections, the fight against disease gets harder each year. It is becoming increasing clear that the world needs new ways to face this threat. The Biosafety Design Initiative was created to tackle this threat and their new course - Planning for Biosafety Environments: Controlling Infectious Disease in Projects - launches June 19. This multidisciplinary course brings together clinicians, designers and managers to defeat the spread of infection. Through strong, collaborative facility and system design, they will eliminate risks to patients and teams. Together, they will build a shared vocabulary to improve future projects.
