At our annual organizational retreat in San Diego this Sep, My Green Lab staff shared inspirations, discussed our 2023 goals, and optimized our business plan. We were excited to reflect on our strategic plan milestones and celebrate our fantastic accomplishments of the past year!
During June 2022 6 labs from Earth and Ocean Sciences in the University of Galway received Green lab accreditation, 4 received green accreditation and 2 received a platinum level. They looked at chemical & plastics waste disposal power usage and efficient use of cold storage.
"When the industry moves beyond its traditional confines, it opens itself up to a new pool of talent that is untapped, more diverse & underrepresented. MassBio has been leading the charge in supporting our members as they address hiring challenges & lagging workforce diversity."
...the [life science] ecosystem must move away from four-year degrees and more towards apprenticeship-style programs... [then] new and diverse populations will gain access to lifetime careers.”
Great op-ed by Sandhya Iyer @TownofLexMA and Kendalle Burlin O’Connell @MassBio.
