Physical Health in the Labs
Our first webinar for 2022 is Physical Health in the Labs with Dr Beth Yule. Dr Beth is a Melbourne-based Osteopath who specialises in chronic pain and migraines. She is joining us to discuss our physical health while working and studying in the labs. In our formative years in the sector, it is so important to learn ways to avoid putting our bodies under unnecessary strain and manage repetitive strain injuries and similar, if they do occur.
