In-lab training programs

To keep the lab running smoothly we need two "inhouse training program", developed by all of us through this site, and implemeted by the lab manager. The first will focus on general lab use, the second on the use of sepcific instrucments.

• Training in general lab use

1. knowing what maintenance work is expected from each of us within our individual lab area
2. knowing what portion of the materials list we are individually responsible for updating
3. how to use the folders (labels, etc)
4. where the garbage cans go, what goes in them (recycling)
5. the "unknown table", how it works
6. knowing how to use this website and edit it
7. knowing how to participate the the angel news group for the lab
8. know website editing etiquette
9. other ideas? Feel free to add them here...

• Training in the use of instruments

1. go through a rotation to briefly learn everybody else's methodology / instruments
