Summary
Peptides are a pivotal class of therapeutics, that can address unmet medical in diseases ranging from cancer to metabolic disorders, but the generation of peptides involves processes that are generally not environmentally sustainable. Here we will upgrade our peptide facility to make it substantially more environmentally friendly, and important for training the next generation of scientists.
