This Inaugural Lecture event will cover the following topics:
- How will microbes and electrons help us to achieve a circular economy? – Professor Eileen Yu, Department of Chemical Engineering
Professor Yu’s lecture will explore how integrated processes – combining biological and electrochemical reactions – can provide a crucial route to achieving a healthy circular economy that supports sustainable development.
- Drugs, pollution and (avoiding) explosions: combining chemistry and technology to solve problems – Professor Steven Christie, Department of Chemistry
In his lecture, Professor Christie will show how the preparation of small molecules can now be achieved rapidly by machines, as well as how chemistry can influence biological systems.
For more information about the venue, including photographs, view the access guide for EHB on AccessAble.
The Professors will be available for questions and further discussion at a drinks reception after the lectures.
