Sustainable Lab Mini Summits
The Sustainable Lab Mini Summits aim to continue creating a culture of sustainability. The summits will serve as a place where researchers and sustainable lab specialists will come together to share knowledge, discuss potential solutions, and inspire innovation in each other. The summits will focus on two key topics of interest that emerged following the 2025 Sustainable Lab Summit: Equipment sharing and reducing single use plastics in labs.
The first mini summit will be held at NCRC on March 24th with an equipment sharing focus and the second will occur in Weiser Hall on March 25th to discuss waste reduction through ditching lab disposables. Each event will include a presentation of a new educational resource put together by the Sustainable Research Advisory Committee, a panel discussion, an expert lecture, and a tabling session with catered lunch.
