In only one month we collected 35 ice packs in our department from orders! The vast majority of ice packs are only used once and we think this is a waste! 😥 Do any companies reuse them? What does your department do? @greenlabs_NL@thermofisher@abcam@biotechne@SanbioBV
Here are the big takeaways from the @IPCC_CH Synthesis Report released today.
First, climate change has already caused widespread and substantial losses to almost every aspect of human life on this planet, and the impacts on future generations depend on the choices we make NOW.
(1/3) Welcome to The Forest of Biologists. We are excited to launch this new #biodiversity initiative from @Co_Biologists, aiming to counteract nature loss, and safeguard some of the most critically endangered #ecosystems for future generations.
The penultimate 'First person' interview in our current Issue is with Lilian Sluimer @SluimerLilian@UniUtrecht on work she performed during her Masters project @SdraTavares@PWBDerksen, investigating the role of FER kinase in breast cancer: https://t.co/sMaB9NrU9d
Happy Valentine's day everyone!❤️ Very excited to see our SKOR1-mutant phenotype on the cover of the newest issue of @J_Cell_Sci. Credits to @PWBDerksen and @SdraTavares! Read more about SKOR1 here: https://t.co/HZIyWxPwcZ
Very happy that my 1st first-author paper is out! Starting this story as a nervous master student and finishing it during my PhD in another lab has been a challenging but exciting journey. Many thanks to Sandra and @PWBDerksen ! Check our story below: https://t.co/UVLHXb0AZ4
The 336 yellow, 193 blue and 83 red inserts used in 1 month are still of great quality. Such a waste to trash them... every month! A take back system is impossible according to @GBO_NL, I find this very hard to believe! #labsustainability#greenlabs
Our department collected 14.4 kg of @GBO_NL pipette tip inserts in only 1 month (pictured). 😱 What a shame that Greiner doesn't want to reuse them. Can anyone recommend any tip fill companies that do? #AcademicChatter@greenlabs_NL#sustainablescience
We're looking for a master student to work on 3D printing lab equipment from recycled lab plastic! Are you creative and have a problem-solving attitude? Do you care about sustainability? Check it out: https://t.co/WOizlIPQxC
Only a week and a half before it's time for the Sustainable Research Symposium! Can't join us on the 19th? Register for online attendance anyway, and get the recording afterwards! ➡️ https://t.co/pmTEM1TDwX #suresymp2022#Sustainable#Science
@greenlabs_NL Another thing that can be changed, is our bacteria incubator that should always be left on at 37C. Even on weekends and during the day, when there is no culture, it is switched on. Definitely worth changing this system!
@greenlabs_NL In our lab, we use a lot of gloves. I think instead of taking a new pair of gloves each time we enter the lab, we can reuse the gloves where possible and safe.
Out now! Reliance on FER-driven endosomal recycling predicts Taxane benefit in high risk #breastcancer. Super proud of this multidisciplinary effort linking basic science and clinical data. Thanks to our collaborators!!! @Cancer_UMCU@SdraTavares https://t.co/pU3tG1tRkc
❗️Registration is now open!❗️ Join us on May 19th online or at the Princess Maxima Center in Utrecht to learn more about our current challenges, cool green initiatives and to meet like-minded scientists from all over the world! https://t.co/3ULQq9RJ4N #suresymp2022
