Background Information

With the UN’s climate change conference COP27 taking place in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt this month and featuring highly in the news, the topic of discussion was sustainability in labs. Building on her session at the Biomedical Scientist Live event, Sheri provided invaluable insight on the environmental issues that labs face and the actions that can be taken to try to increase sustainability. With contributions from our President Debra Padgett, Chief Executive David Wells and members across the Biomedical Science community.
