SAFE PROJECT DESIGN

SAFETY TRAINING COURSES

This year's HKUST-Rice team members have received safety training over the summer. Topics that we have learned about in safety training are as following:

For HKUST:
1. Biological Safety
2. Chemical Safety I/ Chemical Safety for Laboratory Users
3. Chemical Safety II/ Hazardous Waste Management

The link to the laboratory safety training requirements of our institution (The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, HKUST) can be directed to: http://www.ab.ust.hk/hseo/training.htm

For Rice University:
1. General Laboratory Safety
2. Blood Safety and Blood Borne Pathogens

The link to the laboratory safety training requirements of our institution (Rice University) can be directed to: https://osr.rice.edu/Content.aspx?id=788
