Professor Chris Chuck and a multi-disciplinary team at Bath have been able to further the development of a sustainable, yeast-based alternative to palm oil.
Funding from the University’s EPSRC IAA Open Call programme enabled Professor Chris Chuck and a multi-disciplinary team at Bath to further the development of a sustainable, yeast-based alternative to palm oil. The palm oil replacement could help combat some of the most important challenges we face today: climate change caused by deforestation, and food security.
Dr Despina Moschou continues to lead the development of lap-on-chip technology for faster, more accurate COVID-19 detection and diagnosis.
With help from the University’s EPSRC IAA Open Call fund, Dr Despina Moschou continues to lead the development of lab-on-chip technology for faster and more accurate detection and diagnosis of COVID-19.
Vital funding from the University’s EPSRC IAA Open Call fund is helping Professor Toby Jenkins and his team of researchers from the Department of Chemistry to bring their SmartwoundTM technology closer to market.
The technology comprises a simple wound swab which, when placed in indicator solution, changes colour to a bright, fluorescent green if pathogenic bacteria are present in the wound. The novel approach will allow better identification of which patients need antibiotics – and those who don’t – and help reduce the use and cost of unnecessary antibiotics.
Professor Davide Mattia and the late Professor Janet Scott commercialise a sustainable alternative to plastic microbeads.
An award from the University’s EPSRC IAA Open Call fund helped Professor Davide Mattia and the late Professor Janet Scott commercialise a sustainable alternative to plastic microbeads, helping to eradicate these harmful plastics from our oceans.
Dr Chris Pudney has developed a new software solution to make it cheaper, safer and faster for pharmaceutical companies to predict protein stability.
Protein Biochemist, Dr Chris Pudney utilised an award from the University’s EPSRC IAA Open Call to further the development of a revolutionary digital tool that will make it cheaper, safer and faster for pharmaceutical companies to predict protein stability.
