Biomaterials - Made in Bioreactors

In recent years fascinating trends in the development of new bioprocesses and bioproducts have been observed in this area. The diversity of substances produced in biotechnical processes is rapidly increasing. Besides precursors for different applications, more and more materials with specific functions can be produced.

The synthesis of performance proteins, composite materials and surface active substances is of special interest as well as the biocatalytic modification of natural materials. Furthermore, aptamer production and other up-coming products from synthetic biotechnology will be focused upon at the conference. The field of applications will reach from applications in machine construction to the packaging industry up to applications in medicine.

The "Himmelfahrtstagung" - a 3-day annual conference held the week before Ascension Day - is the main event for German Bioprocess and Biochemical engineers. The conference is organised by the working party Biochemical Engineering of DECHEMA - German Society for Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology. In the 30 year history of the conference a lot of momentum for the successful development of German Biotechnology has been initiated.

The main characteristic of the conference is the open and constructive discussion culture. The organisers feel their passionate engagement to continue with this success story and they have arrived at two decisions: 1. The idea of the "Himmelfahrtstagung" is perfect and should not be changed; 2. It is not fair that only German speaking scientists should participate - in 2014 for first time English will be the official conference language.

Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
