 t\; cellulose.  Central to all plant systems the polymer cellulose provide
 s the building block for all plant material\, and has and is used for a wi
 de range of applications.  The talk will show how economic power in the UK
  was once focused on cellulose and how in the future this material may onc
 e again provide the framework for our source new advances in the applicati
 ons of materials\, food and fuel.  Emergent areas of research\, such as th
 e use of nanocellulose fibres will be presented with a view to developing 
 products that can change lives.
