Welcome to the home of #labdaptations ! My name is Kat and I am a Genetics PhD student, navigating science with a disability. Early in my grad school journey, I discovered that accessible lab equipment/tools were lacking, making it difficult for me to perform experiments.
Grateful @natrevchem.nature.com for the opportunity to share my #labdaptations with the scientific community!

Check out the eppendorf tube opener #labdaptations in action!

My thumb hypermobility and lack of hand strength make opening eppendorf tubes difficult (left video). With the use of the eppendorf tube opener, I can open tubes without pain or dislocations (right video).

#labdaptations alert🚨! This tube opener is great for individuals with limited hand strength/mobility or tremors. I use it to keep my joints from hyperextending/dislocating, which helps to decrease pain.
