UNIVERSITY OF MILANO-BICOCCA

UNIMIB is considered one of the leading Universities in Europe in the field of Industrial Biotechnology research and has clearly identified Synthetic Biotechnology, Metabolic Engineering, System Biology and the economics of sustainability and the circular economy as key areas for future research. In this respect, UNIMIB has developed and sold to US and EU industries different patent families leading to the production of chemicals and proteins. Since its birth, Bioeconomy and Sustainability are among the main policy strategies for education and UNIMIB is strongly supporting the MASTER BIOCIRCE together with other research and education initiatives.

TRAINING OBJECTIVES

Participants will be provided with updated knowledge about advanced technologies useful in bioeconomy, in particular “omic” techniques, synthetic biology and nanotechnology. The principal components of the whole production chain will be described and analyzed, thus identifying technological needs and benefits arising from the paradigm shift to circular economy. All information needed to understand mechanisms behind a long lasting successful technology transfer will be provided.
