Creating Consistent Standards for Lab Autoclaves and Sterilizers
Given the state of the climate crisis, there’s increasing urgency to reform how we approach research and development. As it stands, the annual carbon emissions from the biotech/pharma sector alone […]

“Short-Termism” in Laboratory Research: Are Good Ideas Getting Harder to Find?
Roughly two years ago, economist Nicholas Bloom co-authored a paper that set off laboratory research alarm bells around the world, asking “Are Ideas Getting Harder to Find?” They estimated that […]

How to Autoclave Pipette Tips: Quickly Racking Tips for Sterilization
