Bioinformatics Student Assistant

At Again we put CO₂ to good use. By combining millennia-old bacteria with cutting-edge technology, we turn CO₂ into carbon negative chemicals. Our novel biomanufacturing process collects the unavoidable carbon outputs from industry and reuses them to manufacture emission-free chemicals - a win-win for everyone.We’re leading the positive shift. Showing people that our world does have a future. If you think we’re doomed – think Again.
