Scott graduated from the University of Bath with an MEng in Chemical Engineering. As part of his degree he undertook a placement year in the oil & gas industry working on an oil refinery for ExxonMobil. His final year project was on the design of a novel cultured meat process plant to produce meat on a large scale from cells without the need to slaughter animals. He will be carrying this on further in his PhD which is part-funded by the non-profit organisation New Harvest. Outside of work he loves being active and playing sport, ranging from surfing and scuba diving to squash and triathlons.
