Industrial Biotechnology Workshops

UC San Diego Extension has created two highly-interactive workshops that address core aspects of industrial biotechnology. The two workshops will take place August 3 - 7, 2020.

The first workshop, Metabolic Engineering for Industrial Biotechnology, will focus on metabolic engineering as applied to high-volume/low-cost chemical and materials and explore how systems approaches are used in this area.

The second workshop, Microbial Fermentation Workshop, will provide a deep dive into bioreactor principles and bioprocess development.

Workshop Benefits:

Practical, hands-on training provided
Immediate application of tools and techniques at your organization
Taught by UC San Diego faculty and expert practitioners in the field
