The Bioeconomy Cluster Builder and Space Scotland are delighted to collaborate on this webinar dedicated to exchanging knowledge and building connections between stakeholders in the space sector and biotechnology community.
Sustaining human life in space presents many significant challenges in terms of supporting health, providing sustainable food sources and constructing appropriate habitats. In the harsh environment of space, biotechnology applications can contribute to the development of life support systems, providing solutions for oxygen generation, water purification, and waste recycling. Engineering biology can enable development of hardy crops, facilitating sustainable, extra-terrestrial agriculture and reducing dependency on supplies from Earth. Biotechnology can also contribute to production of pharmaceuticals tailored to address space-specific medical challenges during extended missions.
In this webinar, we explored the many intersections between biotechnology and space exploration, and learned how Space Scotland and the Bioeconomy Cluster Builder can support your ambitions in this area.
