ALGAE BIOTECHNOLOGY

The California Center for Algae Biotechnology has developed a biodegradable flip flop. This technology will draw attention to widespread plastic pollution in the world’s water supply (CNN).

As algae biotechnology has grown and matured, we recognize that California is an ideal location to build both the research as well as the production aspects of algae biotechnology. The range and diversity of algae biotechnology research and industry throughout California provides a unique opportunity to make considerable advances in the field, and with Cal-CAB, we are creating and maintaining cooperation, and facilitating joint research efforts and commercial partnerships.
