Valance Mycelium: Harnessing Fungi for Sustainable Bioenergy
Discover how fungi could help power a more sustainable future!
Donte and Amani are student researchers at Clark Atlanta University and Spelman College, respectively, combining their interests in engineering, computer science, and mycology to explore innovative approaches to sustainable energy. Their research includes investigating mycelium-powered biological electrochemical cells, and their latest project, Valance Mycelium, explores the potential of fungal mycelium to generate clean, accessible electricity. Both are also active in the National Society of Black Engineers and the CodeHouse Scholars Initiative, bringing a passion for innovation and community impact to their work.
