Safety

Lab safety is very important to us. In order to ensure that all members and guests are aware of our safety protocols, our procedures for general-use equipment are listed below.

Procedures

Before any lab experiment is performed, it is mandatory for all the group members and visiting users to have a standard operation procedure (SOP) form in place. The SOP must be reviewed by Dr. Fu and signed by the experimenter prior to the experiment. The established SOPs can be found in the shared group google drive.
