About the Bostick Lab: “Our laboratory is a histology, immunohistochemistry, and image analysis research laboratory primarily focused in measuring biomarkers for colorectal cancer in biopsies of normal-appearing colorectal tissue from participants in epidemiologic observational studies, and randomized, controlled trials.”
Members of the lab selected for the Lab Safety Spotlight will receive a pizza party sponsored by EHSO.
Thank you to all the labs and team members for being proactive and embracing a culture of safety.
Ways members of research labs can embrace a culture of safety:
- Maintain your EHSO training to keep it up-to-date
- Know the biological, chemical properties, or characteristics of the materials that you are using in research
- Use your PPE according to the lab-specific PPE Assessment
- Review the safety and lab-specific SOPs before commencing work
- Clean after you have finished your work
- Know how to respond to and report an incident or accident
