Sustainable Science at the IDM: One Year, One Big Reveal
Hosted by IDM Sustainability Working Group
3 October 2025 | 15:00 - 18:00
Wolfson Pavilion , IDM Building
You are warmly invited to join us for a milestone celebration as we mark one year of the Sustainable Science Initiative (SSI) at the IDM.
The one-hour symposium will showcase our journey so far, from groundbreaking sustainability projects across the Institute, to insights from labs pioneering new practices, our first carbon report, breaking ground on the solar project, and updates from the Sustainable Science Working Group.
The event will culminate in a major announcement that you won’t want to miss!
After the symposium, we invite you to connect with colleagues over a celebratory mocktail in the Wolfson Foyer.
