Hello Tilak, 

During a pandemic where contagion is a real threat to everyone returning to colleges or universities this fall, how can the hierarchy of controls that researchers use in the lab be applied to improve safety throughout the campus community setting?

Join Robin Izzo of Princeton University and Frankie Wood-Black of Sophic Pursuits as they discuss protective equipment expectations, best practices for physical distancing, and ventilation considerations for both laboratory and public spaces on open campuses. This ACS Webinar is moderated by Ralph Stuart of Keene State College and co-produced with the ACS Division of Chemical Health and Safety and the ACS Committee on Chemical Safety..
What you will learn:

  • Advantages and challenges of using personal protective equipment for community protection
  • Best practices in physical distancing and peer coaching in the teaching and research settings
  • Ventilation considerations in managing COVID concerns
