Laboratory Safety

During my PhD trainning I managed laboratory safety at a research lab with more than 20 researchers. I cannot stress enough the importance of laboratory safety. This webpage is my small effort to inspire and cultivate laboratory safety by researchers across the globe. Some important resources related to laboratory safety:

US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) page for Laboratory Safety: https://www.osha.gov/laboratories
University of Iowa Environment Health and Safety Website: https://ehs.research.uiowa.edu/
Center for Disease Control And Prevention (CDC) Laboratory Safety Portal: https://www.cdc.gov/labsafety/index.html
National Institute of Health (NIH) Division of Occupational Health and Safety: https://ors.od.nih.gov/sr/dohs/safety/laboratory/Pages/student_goodlab.aspx
