## Description

ITT via DSTL RCloud V\.4 framework The aim of this research stream is to address the need for new energetic materials and mitigate associated risks by exploring alternative and emerging technologies in the synthetic biology domain\. In this way, the project aims to discover and deliver advanced energetic materials \(and potentially valuable new precursors to known materials\), and enable their production on-demand to meet tightly-defined production and performance criteria\.
