[NABS-L] Accessible laboratory equipment

[R. Erik Mitchell]

Happy Super Bowl Sunday! In the fall semester, I have to take a biological anthropology lab in order to fulfill my science requirements for transfer. I am reaching out to the broader STEM/blind student community for ideas of what accessible laboratory equipment is available to me. I live in California, so the state of California Department of rehab as well as the college I go to are willing to get me the equipment I need, but I have no idea where to tell them to get the equipment. From my discussions and research I’m assuming I will need an accessible microscope at the very least, but have no clue beyond that what might be available. Any responses or suggestions would be extremely valuable! Thank you!
