EU funding for proof-of-concept projects on sustainable biotechnology: ERC Grant for Prof. Plumeré
Innovations based on research results – that is the declared goal of the European Research Council's (ERC) Proof of Concept Grants. In the future, two additional projects—including one by Prof. Nicolas Plumeré—based on ERC-funded research will each…
CO2BioTech project consortium meeting at the Straubing campus: Biotechnology: How climate-neutral products succeed
As part of the funding initiative “Climate-neutral products through biotechnology – CO2 and C1 compounds as sustainable raw materials for the industrial bioeconomy (CO2BioTech)”, ten joint projects across Germany are currently being funded by the…
New applications possible: Biosensor performance doubled
Biosensors are helping people with chronic conditions worldwide live better lives. However, their measurement accuracy has often been relatively low, limiting the range of possible applications. Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM)…
Biodiversity to the rescue of “green” hydrogen for fuel cells
The development of hydrogen as an alternative to fossil fuels still faces a number of technological hurdles. In a new article, scientists from the Professorship of Electrobiotechnology at TUM Campus Straubing and from CNRS Marseille have developed an…
CirculH2 project: Successful development of robust and scalable hydrogenases: Revolutionising chemical production
Rapid transition toward the use of renewable, energy-efficient and recyclable resource is needed in industrial biotechnology to achieve sustainable production of chemicals. However, enzyme based biocatalytic processes still mostly rely on…
