Keratin smARt mATerials from feather wastE: Improving recovery of functional molecules from wastes for smart materials design. Project funded by @FondCariplo

Joined April 2023
KARATE on the news!📢 KARATE has publicly been launched with a kick-off meeting, where the guiding principles and approaches were presented by representatives from each research unit. Sincere thanks to @MezzengaRaf for his inspiring lecture on "Rethinking food protein waste"🧫
Recovering high added-value proteins from poultry industry waste, with a view to the circular economy: the @KARATEproject, coordinated by @polimi and financed by @FondCariplo, kicks off. polimi.it/en/spotlight/news-… #SostenibilitàPolimi
