Our Chief technology Officer Dr Paul Dyer was invited to attend a session of the Science, Technology and Innovation Committee to explore the future possibilities that the exploitation of fungi might hold.

Paul Dyer and his team at Nottingham University have discovered that blue cheese may soon be Christmas tree green, or yellow or red. The study is featured in the published in the journal NPJ Science of Food.

Alex discusses breeding fungi with Paul Dyer - producing new varieties of blue cheese. Blue cheese might seem like the hot new thing but people have been eating it for thousands of years. It's not all about cheese - as if that's not enough...Did you know fungi might provide us with the next viagra? And... should we take warning from fungi apocalypse films like, ‘The Last of Us’?

Amelie Savers and Haneen Kheir from Myconeos took part in hosting interactive workshops at BioCity Nottingham with the aim to inspire the next generation of women in science, and all the future discoveries they may uncover.

The family-run cheesemaker from Tain, is the largest mould ripened cheese producer in Scotland and has a long history of embracing new technologies to improve the quality of its products and to drive product innovation.

Amelie Savers from Myconeos presented an invited talk at the PYFF8 (8th Conference on Physiology of Yeasts and Filamentous Fungi). This was about the production of new colour strains of Penicillium roqueforti

UK-based Myconeos is creating new fungal strains for food applications ranging from cheese to plant-based products.

Our £400k project will deliver new Penicillium strains optimised for mould-ripened plant-based cheese manufacturing.

PeakBridge VC and Myconeos Limited are happy to announce investment in Myconeos through Foodsparks. The investment will help Myconeos drive forward delivery of its new Mycoforti® fungal cultures for the dairy industry and expand the technology into the vegan cheese sector and further accelerate the exciting innovation program.

After discovering how to breed blue cheese moulds, scientists have now turned their attention to getting white moulds in the mood for procreation in a bid to create new strains that could “revolutionise” brie-style cheeses.

Hey there, fans of food and science. This is an interesting story about fungal sex and innovations in the blue cheese market. I know the people at the company and they are doing some really fascinating work that has implications in a load of different areas.

Myconeos visited the conference to talk about the role that adjunct and ripening cultures play in cheese flavour. It’s was an opportunity to discuss with UK cheese producers and help them to understand the science behind them and the different approaches that cheesemakers can take to enriching or differentiating the flavours of their cheese (and how our products work in milk).
