The school...
Microalgae are nowadays widely used in blue-biotech for the production of pharmaceuticals, foods and feeds.
MicroFactory 2024 covers key aspects of enhancing their yield. The course consists of lectures and practicals on microalgal diversity; scaling up their cultivation, fine-tuning environmental conditions (e.g. light), and genomics applications (genome editing, transformation, synthetic and systems biology) to safely enhance yield.
MicroFactory 2024 will enable you to network with peers and faculty in blue-biotech, and to exchange experiences on issues and challenges related to microalgae in blue-biotech applications.
The School is organized in the frame of the project GODdEsSEA.
