PhD in Biosynthetic Electrochemistry – Queen Mary University of London
Professor of Analytical Biotechnology at Cambrige University
Head of Research Dept.Chemical Engineering&Biotechnology , University of Cambridge
Elisabeth Hall is founder member of the Institute of Biotechnology, Univ. Cambridge established in 1988, as a centre of excellence in biotechnology research. As one of the four core founder drivers, developed the culture and infrastructure to engage in fundamental innovative research and take the outcomes through to exploitation when appropriate. The most unique aspect of the development was its multi-disciplinary approach, which fostered and encouraged interactive project work giving the Institute important links with expertise in local, national and international Industry, and with research centres around the world. The Institute’s world-wide reputation for pioneering multidisciplinary research and innovation led to the Queen’s Award (1996) and the Queen’s Anniversary Prize (2007). Established the idea of C2X (concept to exploitation) and, as Head of Research, embedded the mantra in the research profile for the unified Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology after its merger, by bring together the research activities and presenting a unified strategic research plan and portfolio.
