Luke Williams graduated from UCL with a MEng in Biochemical Engineering in 2010. His masters research paper was based on an investigation of a new strain of E. coli, looking particularly at its cell wall permeability compared to traditional strains, which could potentially lead to novel and more productive methods of producing proteins.
