October 8, 2013
BioEnergy Community Talk by Geoffrey von Maltzahn (Inventor & Entrepreneur - Flagship Ventures)
Time: 4-5pm (plan to arrive by 3:45pm)
Room: W20-307 (Student Center Mezzanine Lounge, on the 3rd floor)

Usually, we look at bio-resource use towards electricity and/or heat production, but what are some of the other ways we can use such resources? In this talk, Geoff will tell us about how he invents technologies to produce medicine and synthesized nutritients from bio-resources. This topic is extremely important, because if successful, such technology pathways can alleviate the burdens and tradeoffs associated with land and freshwater demand for food production. Please see the attached flier for more details.
