Standard Operating Procedures SOP

While employed with Caris Lifesciences I rewrote many standard operating procedures (SOP). For many of them I had to start from scratch so that they were legible. A lot of the time text was just copied from the instructional manual that came with instruments. I changed a lot of that and wish I could share them with you.

We were lacking many SOPs for processes, and I created many to fill that void. All of them went through a review process, and all the ones I wrote were widely accepted. Also, I implemented photos into the SOPs so they were much easier to read. The images really help break up the text, and as everyone knows, a picture is worth a thousand words.
