The Braun Lab is concerned not only with species conservation, but with recycling and material sustainability. Postdoc Brian Coyle was part of a team that recently found a way to recycle #5 plastic consumables (tip boxes, etc.) from the molecular lab. Recently, they delivered 450 lbs of plastic to Whole Foods for recycling through Preserve‘s GIMME 5 program! The team made it into a recent issue of the SI Sustainability newsletter.
