As a subcommittee of the R&D Committee, the SRS is responsible for reviewing and overseeing the biosafety of all research activities involving biological, chemical, physical, and


radiation hazards for compliance with all applicable regulations, policies, and guidelines. This also includes a review of all laboratory-based research activities (either funded or


non-funded) that will be conducted at the VA Houston or conducted off-site by VA personnel with VA funding.  NOTE: The SRS is also responsible for also routing projects to VA Houston’s


Radiation Safety Committee (RSC) and BCM’s Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC) when applicable. SUBMIT SRS PROTOCOLS through the VAHAR FORM within the eVACS Form. If you have any


questions, contact SRS Coordinator. For additional information, see the LABORATORY AND RESEARCH SAFETY PAGE.
