Prof. Roberto Parra-Saldivar, Chair of Sustainable Mycoremediation at Cranfield University, and Dr Aman Thakur, Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Sustainable Mycoremediation at Cranfield University, will be speaking on the topic below:
How can we catalyse a green, healthy, and fair future by transitioning from a linear model of depletion to a circular loop of production and regeneration? How can fungal enzymes serve as "biological factories" to drive this transition? And how can we heal soils devastated by extraction and warfare, transforming "dead" earth back into safe, productive land? This strategic blueprint shares our vision for the "Myco-Industrial Revolution," detailing the engineering steps necessary to make restorative biotechnology technically viable and industrially profitable.
