March and April LSO Meeting Recaps

Thanks to all of our attendees for the March and April LSO meetings. In these two meetings we discussed how to interface with facilities and services to have any maintenance done in your labs (March). For the April meeting we discussed how to handle specialty waste (with an emphasis on bio-waste). We also showed one of our new initiatives, Safe Operation Cards, and are working on finalizing them. Please see the ‘Monthly LSO Meeting’ tab for the powerpoint slides

Nano Safety Workshop 2/28/2019

2019 Nano Safety Workshop – February 28, 2019
1:15 PM – 4:50 PM
190 Engineering Sciences Building

MRL is a facility that brings in researchers and students from many different backgrounds. In the research environment, work and studies with nanomaterials is steadily growing. This workshop is for all involved with nanomaterial research to help educate them how to properly handle nanomaterials and how to protect themselves. Educating others is a promising way to help our MRL facility and other labs on campus stay a safe environment for research.
