Scott Mahloch is a former member of the Navy and current FBI agent. After entering the FBI in 2008 and completing training, Mahloch was assigned to Milwaukee Division’s Kenosha Resident Agency, where he worked on a variety of cases. He is currently the Weapons of Mass Destruction Coordinator in the Chicago Division.
Although the topic of antibiotic resistance was not central in our discussion, Special Agent Mahlock, by referring to a number of examples from his career, emphasized the importance of being vigilant and aware of one's surroundings while working in a lab setting. SA Mahlock made it clear that the FBI is not a regulatory agency but does take measures to ensure that everything is working smoothly and safely.
Takeaway: SA Mahlocks presentation was informative and made us more aware of the dangers of biology and how it can potentially be used for nefarious acts. Unfortunately, there isn't much we can change about our project from Special Agent Mahloch's pretension. However, if we see something we will definitely say something!
