“A survey of almost 2,400 scientists (world-wide) show that although most believe their laboratories to be safe, about half have experienced injuries in the workplace.” Survey taken by: undergrads, grad students, postdocs, lab techs, PI, professors, teachers, industry scientists (research, senior, director, staff), governmental agency staff scientists, health and safety professionals, department head/chairs, presidents/chancellors of research. Noorden, R.V. Safety survey reveals lab risks: Questionnaire suggests researchers not as safe as they feel. Nature 493, 9–10 (03 January 2013) doi: /493009a
