Transforming plants into ‘biofactories’

The Clive and Vera Ramaciotti Facility for Producing Pharmaceuticals in Plants at UQ’s Institute for Molecular Bioscience has the potential to provide inexpensive medications to patients, says UQ. Head of the new state-of-the-art laboratory, Professor David Craik, says his team will use the Ramaciotti Facility to transform plants into ‘biofactories’ that produce potent next-generation pharmaceuticals.
