Theory, Ecology and Design in Microbial Ecology

Theory, Ecology and Design in Microbial Ecology

This is a past event

Professor Tom Curtis from Centre for Synthetic Biology and the Bioeconomy at Newcastle University will give his talk as part of the SBS Research Seminar Series.

Professor Curtis works on the science and technologies required for the treatment of water and wastes. Such treatment systems are key nodes in the network of environmental services that civil engineers provide for cities. They are undoubtedly critical infrastructure and are central to a sustainable urban environment in all societies. The technology of these nodes dictates the architecture and thus much of the cost, reliability and sustainability of the services provided.
