Division
Bio-Inspired Design Unit
Grow energy and materials instead of manufacturing them. The research borrows from photosynthesis, from mycelial networks, and from the electric currents running through plants.
Who it benefits
- Researchers exploring bio-energy and bio-materials
- Builders seeking low-carbon, grown materials
- Partners taking lab work to market
