Empowering Academic Researchers to Strengthen Safety Culture Workshop

About:

The ACS Division of Chemical Health and Safety (CHAS) is offering this 3.5-hour workshop primarily directed at frontline researchers in academic institutions: graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and undergraduate students.

This workshop discusses the challenges of students making the transition to being independent researchers in academia. Topics discussed include: risk assessment of research projects, understanding the often confusing safety hierarchies of academic institutions, and graduate student-led Laboratory Safety Teams.

Workshop goals are to:

10th Summer School on Sustainable Chemistry for Sustainable Development

Summer School on Sustainable Chemistry and Safe and Sustainable by Design by Leuphana, ISC3, and IRISS

Sustainable Chemistry addresses usage of resources, design, manufacture and use of efficient, effective, safe and more environmentally benign chemical products and processes and also includes alternative business models and ethical aspects. The worldwide implementation of sustainable chemistry is key to reduce unwanted environmental, health and societal impacts of chemicals and chemical products along their life cycle and to achieve sustainable production and consumption.
