The Future of Climate Tech Through the Lens of Synthetic Biology 🌱🔬
Synthetic biology applies engineering principles to living systems, enabling the design of new biological parts, devices, and organisms. This event explores how these tools can reshape climate technology — from turning CO₂ into insulin to decarbonising aviation.
Delivered in collaboration with the Oxford Synthetic Biology Society and the Oxford ZERO Institute, the evening brings together four expert speakers offering perspectives from research, industry, and policy.
What to expect:
- 🧬 How synthetic biology can accelerate Net Zero innovation
- 🌍 Real-world applications across healthcare, fuels, and materials
- 🔧 10–15 minute talks followed by a 40-minute panel discussion
- 🍷 Drinks and networking to close the evening
Speakers include:
- Dr Ting An Lee – Postdoctoral Research Associate & Founder
- Dr Stuart Reid – CTO, Cyanocapture
- Daniel Bloch – Director of Strategic Partnerships, Lanzajet
