My role at SAMS

I support CCAP activities by making the growth media required for all cultures in addition to customer orders. I am responsible for ensuring in-house equipment is up to ISO 9001:2015 standards and that there is a continuous supply of clean glassware available.

I also support CCAP-ARIES scale up projects involving preparing, monitoring, harvesting, and cleaning our four 70L photobioreactors and membrane harvester.

Finally, I support the Co-op Fundation funded project 'Green Shoots from Blue Growth - Creating Blue-Green Circularity', a project that turns waste from aquaculture and fisheries into sustainable fertiliser.
