Five ways health and safety enable our science
Whether you are working with advanced sequencing technologies, handling biohazardous materials or managing high-containment labs, through practical advice and training from our Health and Safety team, we aim to foster a culture where safety is second nature.
Health and safety is an integral part of “doing science” at the Wellcome Sanger Institute and it is our group mission to enable that to occur. We do this through providing the help, advice and support the Institute management require to effectively manage health and safety within their teams. Our team ethos is to be knowledgable, engaging, approachable and pragmatic. Our key strengths are our diverse expertise in health and safety. From life sciences to construction and facilities, ergonomics to fire safety.
