Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

The Risky Research Review Act establishes an independent Life Sciences Research Security Board to review and assess proposed federal funding for life sciences research, particularly research with dual-use potential or involving pandemic pathogens. The Board would consist of nine members—including five nongovernmental scientists and two national security experts—appointed by the President with Senate confirmation, and would have authority to recommend approval, conditional approval, or denial of federal funding for high-risk research projects. The bill defines high-risk life sciences research to include gain-of-function research, research involving potential pandemic pathogens, and research with dual-use applications that could pose threats to public health or national security.
