Did you know that at AltaSea scientists are growing algae to be used as biofuel? Today, I toured AltaSea at the Port of Los Angeles, a hub of innovation focusing on finding environmentally friendly ways of propelling our economy forward while creating thousands of jobs.

Today, we formally cut the ribbon on a novel partnership between USC and AltaSea to harness green and renewable energy from one of Earth's greatest resources: our oceans.

Thank you Carol Folt for leading today’s grand opening of the USC-AltaSea aquaculture lab. Celebrating along with PhD candidates Anupam Singh and @hardenmaddelyn.
