Create or watch a video
The community Theater gives a platform for professionals and students in our community who have great ideas to share and a passion for improving labs and the environment. Videos can help educate on a particular topic, and “PHIL” Talks are from people helping improve labs, with a nod to the late founder of I2SL, Phil Wirdzek, who always inspired and made space for our community to try new approaches.If you are interested in creating a video, please follow the instructions here. To watch a webinar, video, or PHIL talk, feel free to browse the Theater.
