Fermentation Microbiology Workshop
June 8-9, 2009 (register)
A two-day, hands-on, laboratory workshop

The University of Maryland, College Park, in cooperation with the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, and the University of Maryland Biotechnology Institute, is offering a two-day fermentation microbiology workshop plus a one-day symposium on state-of-the-art fermentation processes and practices.

The workshop provides hands-on experience and instruction with various fermentation systems and acquaints attendees with the techniques, methodologies, principles and applications of aerobic bacterial and fungal fermentation.

The workshop provides an opportunity for participants not only to learn the principles of bacterial and fungal fermentation scale-up at the bench, but recent advances and up-to-date applications of this methodology.
