Following on from the success of our 2018 course, the aim of this professional development course is to provide introductory hands-on training and theory in algal biology, culturing, growth and subsequent molecular and metabolite analysis under laboratory and small to large scale growth facilities, as well as giving business information and networking opportunities specifically tailored towards the algal bioeconomy.
Three two-day workshops will be offered in 2019 and participants can choose to attend one, two or all three events (requiring separate registration). The places and dates of the workshops are:
Fraunhofer Institute (Stuttgart, Germany): 12th – 13th November 2019 (registration open – see below)
Matís ohf. (Reykjavík & Stykkishólmur, Iceland): October 2019 (registration to open soon)
University of Cambridge, Algal Innovation Centre (AIC) (Cambridge, U.K.): 12th – 13th December 2019 (registration open – see below)
University of Cambridge, Algal Innovation Centre (AIC) – Practical Algal Biotransformation Course (Cambridge, U.K.): 10th – 11th December 2019 (registration to open soon)
A4F, Portugal (November 2019) (registration to open soon)
Alongside core content on algal physiology, taxonomy, products and regulation, each location will specialise in one core theme (Cambridge – Algal Physiology and Omics; Matís – Micro- and Macro algal Biotechnology and Investment Opportunities and Fraunhofer – Algal Production, Harvesting, Processing and Nutraceuticals and Regulation).
