LEAF: Sustainable research frameworks in action
LEAF (Laboratory Efficiency Assessment Framework) is run by University College London and available to all publicly funded organisations across the world, and it's currently used in 16 countries by 145 organisations. We will explore how some of the LEAF criteria can be used to make sustainable changes in laboratories without signing up to a framework, including case studies from labs and the research behind it.
