We are delighted to share the winners of our Microbes to the Rescue’ short story competition sponsored by the Environmental Biotechnology network.
First prize of £500 goes to Elizabeth Taylor for her story ‘From the Ashes.’ The author uses an engaging family drama to illustrate how environmental biotechnology can transform plastic waste management into a circular system to avoid plastic waste from entering the environment.
The second prize of £200 goes to Vaze Prashant for ‘’For the Common Good’. This eco-thriller with the theme of industrial espionage had us gripped.
Third prize of £100 goes to Brianna Franklin for ‘Up Shit’s Creek,’ a fun story told from the point of view of microbes at a sewage treatment plant.
