Il Corso intende creare maggiore consapevolezza sulle problematiche attinenti al settore delle biotecnologie; aggiornare e rendere più rigorosa la valutazione del rischio ambientale e della salute dell’uomo, motivando alla cultura della prevenzione. Il personale che lavora nei laboratori di ricerca è esposto ad un rischio professionale a volte sottovalutato dai diretti interessati, i quali percepiscono l’esistenza di tale rischio solo in caso di incidente. Per la riduzione del rischio di esposizione risulta quindi di fondamentale importanza la professionalità, l’addestramento, l’esperienza ed il buon senso dell’operatore. Tale attività formativa rappresenta uno dei risultati del Progetto di Ricerca Scientifica Inail: “Prevenzione e tutela della salute e dell’ambiente nei laboratori che utilizzano metodiche biotecnologiche avanzate ed innovative”, finalizzato proprio alla formazione e sensibilizzazione del personale universitario in modo da assicurare il rispetto del D.lgs.206/2001, con una metodologia caratterizzata dalla stretta sinergia tra studenti/ricercatori/Professori universitari/dirigenti.
