Grow Everything Biotech Podcast 4. Insuring Food Safety? Yes! With DNA Barcodes in SPORES!
DNA stores information. Ellen and the team at Aanika Biosciences are using a unique technique to label food with barcodes programmed into DNA fragments housed in spores that are sprayed on produce. Ellen also shares her love for biotech, science communication and why she started community biotech labs.
Grow Everything brings to life the bioeconomy when hosts Karl Schmieder and Erum Azeez Khan share stories from the field and interview leaders and influencers in the space. Life is a powerful force and it can be engineered. What are we creating?
