When speaking about the environment, the NeuroNetwork for Emerging Therapies is usually connected with their work looking at how the world around us affects neurologic disease, especially ALS. Man people don't realize that in the lab, they worry just as much about how they affect the environment, as how it affects us.
Last year the NeuroNetwork lab was granted Platinum status by the University of Michigan's Office of Campus Sustainability's Planet Blue initiative, the highest (best) rating one can receive. In honor of the 6th annual Global Recycling Day, the NeuroNetwork "green team" shared the ways they reduce, reuse and recycle in the lab.
