Micro B3 - MaCuMBA - PharmaSea - Industry Expert Workshop

Mar-30-15 to Mar-31-15
Colmenar Viejo, near Madrid, Spain

The enormous microbial biodiversity of marine environments offers an almost unlimited resource of enzymes and bioactive compounds.  In line with the development of innovative bioinformatics tools for (meta)genomics analysis based on high-throughput methods, application options of marine microbial knowledge in industry and medicine are rapidly increasing.

This second Industry Expert Workshop under the lead of the Ocean of Tomorrow project Micro B3 brings together academic and industrial scientists. It aims to further the exchange of current approaches for the discovery of novel microbial strains, bioactives and engineering of marine-derived biocatalysts with the help of bioinformatics tools. Opportunities and challenges for understanding complex genome data and their application to discover new enzymes and bioactive compounds will be discussed.
