Sorby Centre for Electron Microscopy - Return to Campus Information

Return to Campus (RTC) Information (Covid-19) for existing Sorby Centre Users

(last update 12 April 2021)

We are continuing to implement a range of additional measures to ensure researchers and staff can work safely within the Sorby Centre during the current return to campus period. This page provides details and links to information regarding what is required to resume access to the electron microscopy facility and the additional safety measures in place. All researchers (PhD, PDRA and staff) should have prior formal approval to return to campus from their respective departments and faculty RTC coordinators.

Sorby - Return to Campus Induction and Check List

Existing researchers who are already registered users via the Blackboard portal must complete an additional short Return to Campus Induction module that will guide you through the required updated health and safety and other documentation, necessary to safely resume access the facility. At the end of the training module you will be asked to submit a short google form to verify you have read and understood the content of the induction.
