10th Wädenswil Day of Life Sciences Hosts 2nd CCBIO Symposium 'Industrial Biocatalysis'

Abstract

The chemical industry is under increasing pressure to manufacture chemicals that match not only economic targets but also fulfill societal and environmental objectives. These requirements necessitate the adoption of new approaches and consequently the pace of application of biocatalysis in the chemical industry is increasing. The 10th Wädenswil Day of Life Sciences on June 7th, 2018 focused for the second time on 'Industrial Biocatalysis'. Upon invitation of the Competence Center of Biocatalysis (CCBIO) international experts in the field gave an update about their current research interests and attracted more than a hundred guests from industry and academia.
