Event details

Many principal investigators (PIs) and lab managers have found it helpful to document roles, expectations, and guidelines for the lab in the form of a Lab Manual. Lab manuals can help onboard new lab members and create a framework for research best practices. Join us for a guided discussion on how to create a lab manual for your research lab, whether you are a PI, lab manager, research assistant, or lab member. We’ll take a look at some examples of lab manuals, a few templates and hosting options, and talk about how you might go about leading a discussion in your lab on whether a lab manual might be right for you.

Open Research Week 2022 is an event series celebrating open research best practices hosted by the Princeton University Library Open Research Steering Committee, in partnership with the Princeton University Library and the Office for Research and Open Scholarship.
