Hello! We're from the

Our project EcoCADMUS (E. Coli CAdmium DecontaMination Universal System) aims to provide a safe and effective way to remove Cadmium and Sulfate from wastewater.



Our Team

Come and meet our lovely team!
We've been working hard (mostly!) on our project all over Summer.

Our final Construct

To find our more about our final construct we have designed.

Social Outreach

We have been busy communicating Synthetic Biology and contemplating the sustainability and ethics of our project.
