Research Management

Welcome to SciShield (formerly BioRAFT)

BioRAFT is now SciShield. EH&S has implemented the SciShield system to perform safety inspections of clinical, research, and academic activities on campus. The purpose of the SciShield inspection module is to assist supervisors in maintaining compliance with regulatory agencies and to ensure a safe and healthy work environment for students, faculty and staff.

The Inspection module provides the following important features:

  • Electronically sends inspection reports immediately upon completion of the inspection. Automatically emails reminders and follow-up notices to the supervisor and group compliance liaisons.
  • The supervisor and group compliance liaisons are able to document corrective actions for inspection findings.
  • Tracks correspondence between supervisor and inspector.
  • The supervisor and group compliance liaison can access all inspection reports. 
  • The module tags and tracks findings that have been observed.
  • Compliance dashboards can be accessed by the compliance liaison, supervisor, department head, and Environmental Health and Safety.
