🎉Congratulations to our member Thora @Thora_Arnard, who has successfully defended her PhD Thesis. She has been a genuine pioneer with her work, and her thesis was praised as “a very important contribution to the Biodesign field” by the examiners. Very, very well done! 🌟

Honoured to receive the Double Gold R&D Award last night for my research on #biomineralization and innovative designs with #nature. Thanks to Global Women Innovators and Inventors @GlobalWIIN for this recognition!

[EBNet @EBNetUK]

EBNet loves our good #biofilms ! @JoshuaLoh6 and team are making amazing cellulosic biofilms (like the ones in kombucha) but at scale for functional biomaterials - again very cross-disciplinary, with biologists and designers.

🎉Happy Birthday @BBC on your 100th birthday! When you were founded we had a King, no one knew if they could afford to put their heating on and we'd just lived through a global pandemic. Times really do change!
