#Bioethanol made from organic landfill waste reduces GHG emissions over gasoline, especially if your bioprocess uses Z. mobilis or S. cerevisiae! Read our LCA and LCC of bioethanol production using the @WilsonBio_Chem system authors.elsevier.com/c/1dDKx15eif0e…

In honour of Professor Simon McQueen-Mason, we have set up along with CNAP the McQueen-Mason awards. These will fund #GenerationResearch summer studentships with the aim of widening participation in science. Thank you for any contribution in Simon's memory yustart.hubbub.net/p/McQueen-Maso…

I'm happy to announce we have this new article in Nature, discussing policies and challenges for a just transition. "Degrowth can work - here's how science can help": nature.com/articles/d4158…

Also wonderful to catchup with @FalseUnit who was on EU tour after landing dream job with @amyris in San Francisco after completing her @BBSRCWhiteRose @BBSRC with Simon McQueen Mason and myself - she even brought her own IB product #sweetener

Excited to be a little part of this: Cellulose shoes made by bacteria | Nature Biotechnology nature.com/articles/s4158…

A brilliant scientist, wonderful PhD supervisor and one of my favorite human beings. I will miss him dearly, and remember him fondly for the rest of my days.

Congratulations to @JohnArmst for passing his PhD viva and reaching the end of a long journey @BiologyatYork 🥂🍾👏🍻🏆! Heartfelt thanks 🙏 to the examiners Nick Robinson & @mjplevin . Well done, John, @insanity_one and I are proud. Onwards & Upwards! 🥂

Great to be a part of the HEMP-30 project to catalyse a step-change in the production and utilization of industrial #hemp as a #biorefinery crop in the UK. @UniOfYork @BiologyatYork @beisgovuk

Critics of degrowth simply don't read degrowth literature. This take on emissions keeps making the rounds, so here's a brief thread on what it gets wrong:

Excellent piece on the urgent need to consider #degrowth in climate mitigation scenarios. Achieving the goals of the #ParisAgreement is impossible so long as we continue to assume sustained economic growth must be pursued at all costs, no matter how wealthy a nation is already.

Spam email got its name from a Monty Python sketch in which shouting ’SPAM!’ drowns out all other conversation.

I enjoyed contributing to the insightful outcome of this waste valorisation paper, collaborating with outstanding researchers at York. Always a great pleasure working with Fanran and Jon, both leading lights in the creation of models that elucidate policy. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Combining various fermentation techniques with modern technology is enabling biotech companies to create proteins that rival those in animal products. And they are poised to seriously challenge the industrial meat, egg, and dairy industries. @BrianKateman buff.ly/3gqys4i
