Reimagining Our Food, Water, and Environment: A Start-up Journey (hybrid)

Join In-Person or Virtually, Free, and Open to All

Whether it is the food we eat, the water we drink, or the environment we live in, we face increasing exposure throughout our daily lives to substances such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), microplastics, or pesticides that are increasingly linked to adverse health effects. In this talk, Bryan Berger, Professor, School of Engineering and founder and CSO of Lytos Technologies, a biological revolutionary company, will share examples from his laboratory of how they use biotechnology to develop solutions to address these challenges, and how these solutions are translated to market. He will also highlight the broad range of community partners, such as growers, food producers and water treatment facilities, that he works with in identifying and developing effective solutions.
