The European Workshop on Biotechnology: Biobased Materials, is a four-day training program combining lectures and hands-on laboratory sessions. Designed for a small group of participants, this workshop offers a unique opportunity to gain in-depth knowledge and practical experience in the growing field of biobased materials.
The program will cover key aspects of biopolymers, including their synthesis, processing, and applications, as well as their role in promoting sustainability. Participants will learn about various types of biobased materials, such as polyesters, polysaccharides, proteins, and polyamides, and explore the latest techniques for their production, purification, and characterization. Special focus will be placed on the circularity and environmental benefits of these materials, emphasizing their potential to drive the transition toward a greener economy.
Through a blend of expert-led theoretical sessions and practical laboratory work, attendees will develop both foundational knowledge and technical skills, making this workshop ideal for researchers, students, and professionals eager to deepen their expertise.
