Professor and Head of Section Anne S. Meyer from DTU Bioengineering receives the Order of Dannebrog in recognition of her important contributions to the field of enzyme technology and her insistence on research benefiting society.
Her research lies within the field of enzyme technology, providing knowledge and new technologies within the area. Anne S. Meyer’s work covers carbohydrate processing enzymes, enzyme kinetics, enzyme discovery, enzyme function, conversion of biomass, CO2 conversion, designing glycomolecules, protein engineering, and refinement of seaweed.
Anne S. Meyer personifies the DTU vision of creating sustainable value and welfare through education, research, and innovation. She cooperates with partners within the Danish industry and national and international scientists to solve some of the most significant challenges, e.g., the conversion of biomass to produce high-value products and the conversion and capture of CO2 in the fight against climate change.
Anne S. Meyer is an inspiring supervisor who has prepared students from DTU for entering society and industry with a clear purpose: to create value and to find solutions to the challenges society faces based on a solid scientific and technological foundation. Her work has produced numerous young, talented scientists who, through their own research, further sustainability, particularly in Denmark.
Anne S. Meyer is head of the research group “Enzyme Technology”, which conducts research that provides new knowledge, new enzymes, and new innovative process strategies for resource utilisation, industrial bioconversion processes, and new products supporting sustainable development.
