EH&S Laboratory Safety Training
This training is required for ALL members of the Markelz Research Group before working in the lab.
This 1.5 hour class provides basic right-to-know training on hazardous chemicals and provides instructions on how to safety handle and package laboratory wastes. All lab workers including but not limited to: research assistants, graduate assistants, post docs, visiting post docs, and undergraduate students MUST attend the training if they are performing any work in a laboratory environment.
Cleanroom Safety Training and Orientation
This training is required for all Markelz Research Group members who will also work in the Davis Hall Cleanroom.
- Request Lab Safety Training
- Schedule an Initial Cleanroom Orientation and Training Session
