PhD project in conjunction with James Hutton Institute kicks off
November 2015
MBL is pleased to be starting a relationship with another respected Scottish academic institution, the James Hutton Institute or JH, in the shape of a 3 year PhD project which will focus on the technical development of seaweed components with significant commercial potential. This work will help MBL progress towards its overall goal of becoming a market leader in Multi-component Seaweed Extraction. The initial emphasis in the project work, which will be carried out by a student moving from Portugal to Dundee in Scotland, will be in the area of anti-oxidant molecules (poly-phenols) which can be found at surprisingly high levels in sone seaweed species.
