Biosecurity Research Institute

The Biosecurity Research Institute (BRI) is a facility that focuses on studying biological threats, such as infectious diseases and pathogens that could harm plants, animals, or humans. Located at Kansas State University, it brings researchers together to develop strategies for preventing and responding to outbreaks, ensuring safe food production, and protecting public health. The BRI conducts experiments under controlled conditions, allowing scientists to understand how these threats work and how to mitigate them effectively. Its aim is to enhance biosecurity measures and promote safety in agriculture and health sectors.
