Why Attend
Protein engineering has shaped the direction for biocatalysis being integrated into the workflow of large pharma globally. With the toolkit for enzyme design and discovery improving rapidly, this community is now presented with an enormous array of opportunities for the design of sustainable biocatalytic strategies.
The Protein Engineering Biocatalysis Congress will highlight case studies on scaling up these technologies for commercial scale whilst integrating protein engineering and directed evolution driven by industry, with academia and computational research. This event is your opportunity to analyze developments in protein engineering for biocatalysis to establish sustainable, scalable and cost-efficient API manufacturing.
As the unique meeting point of industry, academia and service provider, this forum provides a platform for the community to improve capabiliites to industrialize sustainable enzyme products and increase product efficiency globally.
- Leverage protein engineering and enzyme evolution to enable increases in efficient optimization of enzymes in the context of cascades
- Speed up biocatalyst design and widen your knowledge of sequence function through by learning about recent advances in ultrahigh-throughput methods
- Discover how to utilize machine directed evolution as a tool to access chiral molecules
- Outline steps to improve enzyme stability measurements under industrially relevant conditions
- Explore advances in synthetic biology
- Demonstrate advancements in your service capabilities
