Congratulations to Professor Rachael Bay and the Bay Lab denizens!

The Bay Lab recently received the 2022 Grand Prize for lab safety from UC Davis Safety Services. 

The selection committee praised the Rachael and lab manager Brenda Cameron for their dedication to fostering a research culture that minimizes risk. That's a tall order, when lab personnel work at lab benches at UC Davis, walk-in aquarium rooms, eelgrass flats at dawn, or coral reefs in Moorea. 

And check out who's depicted in one of the photos that accompanies the article.

Congratulations to all!
