Sustainability for Life Sciences

Are you a researcher in a lab, leading a scientific team, or responsible for sustainability management at a research institution, and looking for practical ways to significantly reduce energy, water, and single-use plastic consumption without compromising safety or quality?

With my experience as a scientist, I can help you identify concrete levers for change in your day-to-day lab operations—from reducing single-use plastics, water, and chemicals, to energy-efficient equipment management, to hands-on workshops and personalized guidance for optimizing your workflows.

Are you a life sciences company looking to present complex sustainability topics in a way that’s understandable to your target audiences, support your sustainability claims with robust facts, and implement your reporting in a structured manner according to the Voluntary Standard (VS)?

I’ll help you communicate your sustainability performance transparently—from designing scientific white papers and conducting data-driven Green Claims Checks to providing efficient and structured support for your VS sustainability reporting.

Why should you work with NIUB …

As a scientist, I have been working in the laboratory myself and know from my own experience the challenges, if something needs to be changed sustainably – in both senses of the word – in the laboratory.

I bring several years of experience as an account manager and in technical customer consulting from the life science industry.

I have gained extensive sustainability knowledge over the past few years and now use my expertise in both fields to support you in your work in the lab or the company on your sustainability journey.

Using my scientific background, industry experience and sustainability expertise, I support you on your way to more sustainability.

In the lab or your company.

With my scientific background, life sciences experience and sustainability expertise I'll support you on your way to more sustainability – in the lab and in the company!
