Last update: September 23, 2021, 4:00 PM
Our goal is to ensure that our staff, and the researchers who interact with us, remain as safe possible, while at the same time doing our best to continue to serve those of you who rely on our services to push forward your research programs.
All of our staff will be working from home where possible, but the core lab will be staffed during regular hours. When visiting with them please wash hands or use hand sanitizer before and after. We will also be practicing CDC guidelines including frequent hand-washing and regularly sanitizing high-touch surfaces. Here are some more specific updates:
The main office may be open. If you need to speak with someone in person, call 541-737-3347 to verify if someone is in the office before stopping by. You can also email:
CQLS facilities can now be used without a research resumption plan. Please follow OSU's current masks, distancing, personnel space requirements, and protocols.

Multi-user room
The multi-user room is available for use for trained users of essential or approved resumed research.
All staff will be working from home. Where possible, please contact staff via email. If you do call, please leave a message with your name and phone number, as all staff have voicemail to email turned on, but may not have access to the phone. Face-to-face conversations will be via Zoom where possible.
