The 2IP imaging platform is the first platform to be awarded a LEAF label!
The LEAF (Laboratory Efficiency Assessment Framework) initiative launched by the University College London aims to make research activities more sustainable and reduce their carbon footprint.
The Bronze label is a first step and consists of complying with 16 criteria, including :
- waste management,
- welcome and departure procedures for team members,
- quality supervision,
- purchasing procedures,
- management of equipment, samples and protocols,
- IT
- equipment calibration
- room ventilation
The 2IP platform joins several Health Sciences Sector laboratories that have already successfully embarked on the process!
