The Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities’ task force on laboratory safety met for the first time in early May to begin hearing testimonies from experts.
The APLU task force, created in April, hopes to come up with a strategy for laboratory safety, and resources including best practices and advice for universities and other institutions, by early 2016.

It will continue this work for the rest of the summer.
