In 2024, the University of Michigan (U-M) Medical School rolled out a lab safety awareness contest for research laboratories. A quiz was developed that included questions related to biological and chemical research and addressed frequent and/or high-risk inspection deficiencies and incidents on the medical campus. Prizes were chosen that supported and improved safety in the areas the quiz covered. There will be time for Q&A.

Because it’s now more important than ever, the 16th Annual MABioN Biosafety Symposium will still be held, just not in-person and not August 3-5, 2020 in Ann Arbor, MI. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our annual Biosafety Symposium will be held remotely through our GoToWebinar platform. You can still participate, present, and attend – and get CM points from ABSA – but you can do it from home or office.
