Biotechnology is a diverse field that includes tools and techniques that let us use biology to solve problems and make useful products.
Biomanufacturing uses biological components or living organisms such as bacteria, yeast, and algae to make new products or replacements for current products that are more sustainable and environmentally friendly than current processes.
