Pipetting ergonomics: first prevention day on musculoskeletal disorders
A prevention day on musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) linked with the daily task of pipetting took place yesterday, Thursday September 29.
This event provided information and training for around a hundred Institut Pasteur staff on MSDs and how they can be prevented.
Over the next few weeks we will be providing a link to a video of exercises that encourage ergonomic postures while pipetting, as demonstrated by a physiotherapist.
In the meantime, the highlights of this event and the presentation and practical guide are available online.
