Congratulations to Professor Liao Pan on winning a Gold Medal at the Silicon Valley International Invention Festival 2026.
His project, “A Method to Produce an Unusual Monoterpenoid,” offers a greener, cost-effective way to produce lavandulol—a key ingredient in perfumes and fragrances—by rebuilding the plant’s natural biosynthetic pathway in a host plant. This enables efficient, scalable production for industry while reducing environmental impact.
We are proud of Prof. Liao’s achievement and his team’s contribution to translating biology into real-world applications.
