My Green Labs

In 2021, the Faculty of Health Sciences funded three labs to register with My Green Labs. We look forward to seeing their progress towards some targeted sustainability goals over the next 12 months. The three labs are the Undergraduate Teaching Lab in the School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences (pictured); the Renal Inflammation Group (RIG) Lab in TTMI on the Trinity St James's Campus; and the Dental Technology Lab in the Dublin Dental University Hospital.
