<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Labs are some of the most resource-intensive spaces, generating waste and using energy. Join a panel of experts from the MIT Office of Environment, Health and Safety to discuss resources and best practices to
help reduce environmental impact and create a culture of sustainability in research. As future research leaders in academia and industry, learn how you can set up your labs to foster sustainability practices while engaging in cutting edge discoveries. The
discussion will include Q &A, so come prepared with sustainability-related questions!
