DESCRIPTION:Amela Groso\, Emanuele Ripiccini and Richard Gaal\nAll users o
 f cryogenic gases and liquids need to be fully aware of the associated ris
 ks and how to use cryogens safely. \n\nOHS offers a short training course
  tailored to anyone using\, handling or storing cryogenic liquids. Users w
 ill be thought of the hazards of cryogenic liquids so that they can identi
 fy risks and adopt safe working practices.\nTopics covered include:\n\n	cr
 yogenic fluids and their hazards \n	equipment failure and accidents\,\n	h
 ow to protect yourself.\n\nFor this particular session we will also have a
  contribution from Dr Richard Gaal\, EPFL LHe liquifaction center\, to tal
 k about:\n\n\n	why we use cryogenic liquids\n	physical properties leading 
 to hazardous situations\n	technical aspects of storing and handling lliqui
 d Nitrogen and similar liquids (dewar handling\, avoiding accidental pres
 surisation\, not mixing different cryogens etc)\n	specificities of liquid 
 Helium dewars\n\nImportant note for CoSecs: Please transfer the informatio
