Doctoral School, Berlin

This 5-day event is being organized by the YEASTDOC project. Participants will benefit from the expertise of the YEASTDOC consortium and invited speakers from outside the network. The programme includes a range of topics – synthetic biology, metabolic modelling, cell factory design, scale-up processes – and formats – lectures, tutorials and group exercises. Industry sessions will focus on industrial yeasts, translating research to industry and new innovations in industrial biotechnology.
