Some recent press work featured on the beeb. Talking about waste and how biotech can help with closing the loop
Did you catch us on BBC Breakfast this morning?
Dr Neil Dixon and Dr Micaela Chacón explain how biotechnology could be used to help us with our Christmas waste.
Start from 17:45: bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0…
