Routine Microscopy: Improving Productivity Through Better Ergonomics

9 Nov 2017

James Geary, physiotherapist at the Royal Lancaster Infirmary, Lancaster, UK, describes the issues encountered by professionals carrying out daily microscopy tasks. A five-point checklist details a step-by-step guide to setting up a microscope with ergonomics in mind and Delaram’s story demonstrates how changes in both equipment and customization can have immediate real-world benefits, reducing pain and improving productivity.
