Regulatory Framework

This section provides you with information on legislation, regulations and guidelines relating to the science and medical research sector. It is separated in to three sections: NSW, Australian and other States & Territories.

For detailed information about the regulatory framework for life-sciences based research, visit OSMR's online resource, Research Roadmap. The Research Roadmap has been designed as an accessible and comprehensive introduction to the regulatory framework applicable to Life Science based research, innovation and product development in NSW. It is a resource for scientific researchers in all fields of science related to biology, and companies involved in the development and production of biologically based scientific and medical products, including medical devices. The Roadmap will assist anyone conducting or considering initiating these activities in NSW.
