Dr. Javier Carvajal Barriga gave a presentation on the reanimation of yeast and the quest to find and brew a beer with yeast from the first brewery in the America's in Quito, Ecuador.

His technology is very impressive indeed! Dr. Barriga also uses this novel technology to work with the NIH on Sars-COV-2 and HIV. 12/28/2022
