**Description**:
Pioneering solutions that enhance manufacturing capabilities while promoting a greener, healthier world are urgently needed for a wide variety of industrial processes. An example of this is the global shift to reduce fossil fuel reliance and associated environmental impacts that are increasing the demand for innovative biofuels and biodegradable products. Concurrently, the urgent need for efficient biologics and vaccine production, especially for emerging health threats, is critical. Although seemingly disparate examples, addressing these needs requires developing fundamental knowledge in scalable processes that leverage advancements in metabolic engineering, cell culture technologies, and bioseparation techniques. By focusing on these areas, engineers can create economically viable and environmentally sustainable processes, contributing to a transition to more sustainable practices that can be implemented across multiple industries.
