Summary
Andrew Martin is a Senior Laboratory Safety Specialist with eight years of experience bridging frontline immunology research and biosafety practice. He holds a PhD in Immunology and an MS in Microbiology from the University of Rochester, where his work probed interferon-gamma–mediated host defenses against Toxoplasma gondii and trained him in in vivo and in vitro innate-immune cell biology. A recent fellow in the NIH National Biosafety and Biocontainment Training Program, he brings hands-on expertise in laboratory design, industrial hygiene, IBC review, and containment of high-consequence agents. At UNR he now applies that technical depth to institutional biosafety systems, risk assessment, and operational safety for diverse research programs. Andrew’s background spans wet-lab techniques, animal work, and even histology and field ecology—an unusual mix that helps him evaluate biosafety issues from molecular bench to field context.
