Bio Spring Swap

Two-day (April 21-22) lab equipment and supply exchange happening in IBB, Whitaker, and EBB!


Clean it up and Swap it out!

Monday, April 21 and Tuesday, April 22, 8:00 a.m. - 3:00. p.m. (both days)

Residents of the Petit Biotechnology Building (IBB), the Krone Engineered Biosystems Building (EBB), and the UA Whitaker Building (BME) are invited to bring unused and gently used items from their labs to their building's atrium or lobby for a Swap event. Items should only come from the labs within each respective building, but anyone from Georgia Tech's bio-community is welcome to "shop" at any of the building Swaps. 🛒

Members of the bio-community are encouraged to visit both locations over the two-day event! 

Items permitted in the Swap:

  • Intact glassware
  • Unused plasticware
  • Non-contaminated materials
  • Non-inventoried equipment*

Chemicals, broken glassware, and contaminated materials should NOT be added to the Swap, but should be disposed of per EH&S guidelines. 

*If your lab has inventoried items to remove, contact the host building's facilities contact with the tag number: Savannah White (IBB), Breylan Boyd (BME), and Jason Dunn (EBB).

Items not picked up from the atrium by 5 p.m. on Tuesday, April 22 will be responsibly disposed by each building's facilities team.
