Chemical engineering professors Leonardo Simon and Raymond Legge are part of a new cross-university team of scientists formed to help Canadian companies bring their innovative bioproducts to market faster. The Ontario Biomaterials A-Team, led by Guelph-based Ontario Agri-Food Technologies, is made up of 10 members with complementary skills from seven Ontario universities.
