CSB在調查報告中還特意引用了美國化學協(xié)會(ACS)化學衛(wèi)生與安全分會主席Kenneth Fivizzani的觀點,即“ultimately the attitude of the principal investigator in any laboratory is more important than even best practice guidance, databases, or organizational restructuring(對于任何實驗室而言,PI對待實驗室安全問題的態(tài)度是最重要的)”。
《Nature》對此非常贊同:“Leaders of research projects must take responsibility for the safety of the scientists doing the work, and must start to work with safety officers, rather than endure them(研究項目的領導者必須為科學家工作時的安全問題負責,而且必須和安全檢查員進行合作,而不是敷衍他們)”。
