Biotransformations have become an important tool in all areas of industry, where high yielding chemo-, regio-, and enantioselective reactions often are critical.
To increase efficiency of new biotechnological processes it is important that scientists from the diverse fields of chemistry, biology and process engineering work efficiently together in research and development.
The aim of the Summer School Biotransformations in 2022 is
All talks, lectures and posters at the Summer School Biotransformation will be presented in English.
Download Flyer Summer School Biotransformations 2022 (PDF)
Speakers will stay at least for one night to enable an intensive exchange and discussion among all participants about scientific topics and career opportunities.
PhD students and post-docs have to contribute a poster and a one page abstract in English presenting their work. Posters will be presented in "2 minute speed lectures" as a part of the official scientific programme and will also be discussed during poster sessions.
The number of participants is limited, enabling close interactions of the young academics with leading experts in the field of biotransformation.
