Who we are
The Sitnik laboratory investigates unknown aspects of stromal cell biology in health and disease. Our focus lies on unravelling the mechanisms by which stromal cells regulate the immune system and the role they play in host-microbe interactions. Through our research we strive to provide biological insight that can aid in the prevention and treatment of infections and immune disorders.
Why/How are we going Green
Our laboratory is proud to join Green Labs Austria and actively contribute to more sustainable research practices. We are committed to reducing our environmental footprint by recycling single-use plastic consumables, including tubes, cell culture vessels and pipette tips. Furthermore, we work to minimise energy and water consumption through careful resource management and continuous optimisation of our workflows. Our approach also involves raising awareness and educating students and young researchers about the importance of sustainability in scientific research. By integrating “green thinking” into daily lab routines, we aim to lead by example and inspire a culture of responsible innovation.
