AbstractEngineered Living Materials (ELMs) are an emerging class of materials that have additional or unique functionalities resulting from the inclusion of living cells on or within the material. ELMs are expected to provide improved sustainability in material development, manufacturing, and use. For instance, using living cells as (micro)factories would facilitate generation of desirable materials from sustainable inputs, such as the production of biopolymers from simple sugars or waste materials.
