The cell culture lab, if you adhere to Good Cell Culture Practice, can come across like a cold and hostile place. Don’t share your reagents ❌, don’t share the hood ❌, don’t shove around other people’s plates in the incubator ❌, don’t talk, don’t sing ❌, don’t hang around, when you are done ❌, don’t do this ❌, don’t do that ❌.

But actually, by applying these practices, we do not only protect our own work, but also other people’s work πŸ˜‡. By adhering to good practices, we create a save space for your cells and our experiments. We also positively contribute to the #scientific #community with good quality work and reproducible studies πŸ‘πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘.

On top, small gestures, such as greeting with a smile 😁, putting a fresh autoclave bag into the bin for the next person and leaving the lab space squeaky clean after finishing our work can make all the difference 🌹.

But also knowing that, in order to protect our and other colleagues work, we always stick to the rules of Good Cell Culture Practice 🫢🫢🫢.
