**Organised by:** UKRI Medical Research Council  
**Date/Time:** 2023-11-09T09:30:00Z→2023-11-09T15:30:00Z

**Location:** Newcastle University Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 7RU United Kingdom  
**Description:** The seminar will focus on the specific challenges of achieving environmental sustainability in the context of life science laboratories and further suggests how interventions can be made within supply chains/procurement as a mechanism to ensure greater sustainability.

The seminar will seek to include challenges and views from across the sector and demonstrate areas of best practice in order to accelerate wider adoption as part of a sustainable procurement strategy.

Following the seminar, participants will have an opportunity to network.

We would encourage in person attendance to facilitate richer discussion, followed by a networking session, however appreciate this is not possible for all and will provide a link for virtual attendance.
