Despite the rain in York our Year 2 Annual Meeting is underway. So far we've had a BBSRC update & 2025 review with the prospect of new learning opportunities in 2026. Now time for work package updates, posters & networking next! Great to have the team in one room. #ElementalHub #EngineeringBiology
Hello York!
We arrived this afternoon under grey skies to start setting up for our annual 2-day meeting, which kicks off tomorrow.
Lovely to be here, and looking forward to what the next couple of days bring.
#ElementalMissionHub #EngineeringBiology
These are early-stage, impactful projects with industry engagement and access to scale-up infrastructure through C-Loop. We’re keen to hear from graduates in #biotechnology, #engineeringbiology, #chemistry, or related fields who are excited by sustainability and doing something a bit different.
Both projects sit at the interface of #engineeringbiology, #chemistry, and #sustainablemanufacturing, tackling prolific waste streams:
✂️ 1. Bio-upcycling waste human hair into chemicals for haircare products
🏭 2. Reimagining solvent waste from the pharmaceutical industry as a microbial feedstock
Matrix hosted an #EngineeringBiology workshop earlier as part of an ongoing foresight study.
Bringing together leading experts from government, academia, and industry to explore the Northern Ireland engineering biology landscape, assess economic impact, and innovation and investment opportunities.
3 weeks to go until our #Elemental Year 2 Annual Conference. Bringing together our team of #EngineeringBiology experts & stakeholders to review progress & stimulate #Collaboration & discussion plus drive continuous development. Look out for daily posts covering the event. elementalhub.org
