IBEC, in collaboration with SuRe-CAT (Sustainable Research Catalonia network), Parc Científic de Barcelona (PCB) and Nanomed Spain, is hosting an in-person satellite event of “Sustainable Research: Fit for the Future”, an event organized at EMBL Heidelberg together with EMBO, the Sustainable European Laboratories Network (SELs), and with support from the European Union’s Climate Pact.
This event provides an opportunity to engage in critical discussions on sustainability in scientific research, bringing together professionals from various research institutions across Catalonia.
The symposium will explore the vital role of sustainable practices within the scientific community. As researchers tackle global challenges, adopting environmentally responsible and socially equitable research methodologies is more important than ever. Topics covered will include green laboratory practices, the power of grassroots movements, organizational sustainability strategies, and the role of funders, all with a focus on the future of sustainable science.
Through keynote presentations and panel discussions, participants will connect with leading experts, exchange experiences, and collaborate across disciplines. By fostering a culture of sustainability in science, we can reduce our ecological footprint, enhance research integrity, and ensure the long-term viability of scientific progress.
