SAFE PROJECT DESIGN
Biological safety are our priority, especially when our focus are related to the agricultural business. Our team do not want to release and genetically engineered organism into the field, nor to contaminate crop by directly applying the bacteria into the field.
Two approaches ensuring biosafety
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:
