Join us for a guided tour to ISMIB Teaching Labs in the Life Sciences Building and learn about our sustainability action on Wednesday 28th February, 9:30 in Life Sciences (Seminar Room 3, 2nd floor, Crown St, Liverpool L69 7ZB) as part of Sustainability Week 2024.

LEAF (Laboratory Efficiency and Assessment Framework) is a green initiative developed by University College London (UCL) to improve the sustainability and efficiency of laboratories, technical workspaces including workshops, studios and galleries. LEAF contains actions which lab users can take to save plastics, water, energy and other resources. By taking part in the programme, laboratories and other workspaces can reduce their carbon emissions and create an environment that supports research quality.

We will take you on a tour of our LEAF Gold accredited labs and discuss the framework with you showing you how easily you can make you lab practices more sustainable.
