The Society’s conferences are a large source of environmental impact. Both through the means of travel used by conference attendees as well as the hosting of the physical meeting. Significant efforts have been made over the last years to measure and reduce the impact of the conferences. The sustainability efforts of ISCB conferences can be found here.
The ISCB grove was set up in 2020, in collaboration with All Things Small and Green and Trees for Life to provide a route for members to offset their carbon emissions. We invite you to contribute here.
