      Thankfully no, not yet! We have quite strict health and safety measures to prevent accidents from happening. As we have some very nasty chemicals in the lab, this is very important.

      No I haven’t yet – although there have been a few near misses – I once set fire to a notebook when a laser shone on it for too long !!!

      As Isabel says we have strict polices and procedures to make working in labs as safe as possible
