Featuring over 100 technical presentations, over 40 Technology Fair vendors, several networking opportunities, three workshops, and a Washington University School of Medicine Neuroscience Building tour, the conference is packed with opportunities for learning and engaging with sustainable lab professionals.

 

The highlight of the conference, our 36 concurrent technical sessions are organized into four tracks: systems optimization, green labs, sustainable design, and decarbonization. The full agenda and speaker bios can be found on the I2SL website.
