"I am thrilled to be joining the Osmo team building the world's first AI platform for scent molecule discovery," said Laudamiel. "The fragrance industry has mastered complex plant extractions, scent chemistries, and manufacturing at scale. But when it comes to discovering new scent molecules , there is a new opportunity to explore the billions of untapped molecules that human noses cannot screen on their own."

Excess wine

Posted by Robin on 28 August 2023 6 Comments

The French government plans to spend €200 million (or about $216 million) to destroy excess wine in hopes of shoring up a struggling wine industry that is seeing changing consumption habits among younger drinkers.

...the government will be adding to the initial €160 million fund offered by the EU to purchase the surplus wine, according to Agence France-Presse news wire.

The wine will be destroyed to create industrial alcohol that can be sold to make items such as hand sanitizer, cleaning products, and perfume, according to the report.
