About this Guide
Safety First
There is more to the focus on safety in science than just avoiding accidents or disruptions in research. Regular habits of mind needed to keep a safe work environment, like planning and consistent practice, are also valued in the research process. Plus, you are not just setting up useful habits for yourself, you are setting up a safe environment for the people you work with.

Emergency Preparedness
With COVID-19, we’ve all been considering the significance of emergency planning. Develop a safety plan for potential natural disasters in your area, or in an area you are visiting. For example, in Newport, Oregon it is necessary to be prepared for possible earthquakes, tsunamis, and landslides. Being prepared may include a planned meeting space for friends/family in case communications are unavailable, a week’s supplies of food for you and your pets, and adequate medications for an extended period of time. Research and develop a plan that fits your location.
