  • Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic  limitations will be placed on numbers of users allowed to work in the CBE labs and offices at any one time.

    In order for us to manage this and make it safe for everyone individual researchers must 'book' time slots with Carolyn and Kul by E-mail. You will need to book time slots for the lab you wish to work in and for H34 for any analytical work. You must also book time in the office. This will allow as many researchers as possible  to resume work while maintaining a safe working environment.

    We do appreciate experimental work  ( especially cell culture) can be unpredictable and booking slots will be challenging. You will need plan ahead and book what you think you will require. Before you book a slot is advisable to liaise with those who share the area to negotiate how you will share the area safely and discuss any possible delays that may occur. Communication will be key between those who share the area.

    All approved bookings will be notified by E-mail.

    Any conflicts will be raised to be negotiated between those involved.

    The booking sheets can be viewed in the CBE-QUAL workspace but will be READ ONLY. 

    The Booking sheet will be updated regularly for your to view availability.

    An example of what the booking form will look like can be seen in the attachments below.
