Administrative / biographical background

The National Institute for Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC) is a global leader in the field of biological standardisation. It is responsible for developing and producing over 90% of the biological international standards in use around the world. The Institute is the UK's Official Medicines Control Laboratory (OMCL), responsible for independent regulatory testing of biological medicines within the framework of the European Union. It is also host to the UK Stem Cell Bank and a key UK research centre in the field of pandemic flu.

The NIBSC began work in May 1972. In April 2009, NIBSC became centre of the Health Protection Agency (HPA).

In April 2013, the NIBSC left the HPA and was merged with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), which was re-branded with the MHRA identity being used for the parent organisation and one of the centres within the group.
