UKRI Funding Boosts UCL Engineering Biology Projects

University College London

UCL scientists will be leveraging engineering biology to tackle global challenges such as preventing plastic pollution and improving metal recovery and recycling, in new collaborative projects funded by the UK Research and Innovation (UKRI).

UCL Academics

The Engineering Biology Mission Hubs and Awards, announced by the UKRI as a £100m investment, aim to harness cutting-edge engineering biology research from across the UK to address global challenges from health to the environment.

The six hubs, two of which feature UCL academics, will receive up to £12 million each from the UKRI Technology Missions Fund and the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC).
