Early Career Scientists: present your work to an international audience.

An event organised by the EFB Biocatalysis Division covering the following topics:

Bioinformatics based discovery of new keratinases in protease family M36
by Jingwen Qiu, Kristian Barrett, Casper Wilkens, Anne S. Meyer
In the present study, new keratinolytic enzymes were identified in protease family M36 using the bioinformatics tool Conserved Unique Peptide Patterns (CUPP). The results validate the applicability of CUPP for function-based discovery of non-characterized keratinases and present new robust keratinases for potential use in keratin upgrading.

The 18th edition of the International Symposium on Biopolymers 2022 is scheduled for September 13-16 and will be held in presence mode in the oldest city of Switzerland, Sion, and organized by University of Applied Sciences and Arts Western Switzerland (HES-SO) and the University of Stuttgart.

The ISBP2022 will bring together international experts from the scientific and industrial fields with a focus on (bio)polymers like polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), cellulose, pullulan, cyanophycin, polylactic acid (PLA), polyisoprenes (rubbers), but is also open for bio-based polymers like PEF and will include inorganic biopolymers such as polyphosphate (polyP).

Registration and abstract submission are open!

Engineering Biology - applications for chemistry-using business
23 May 2022

As an introduction to Engineering Biology and to build this community, SCI are hosting this one day conference, including a range of company case studies and panels to showcase Engineering Biology in practice. This will kickstart discussions on how industry can collaborate and develop to become more responsive, better equipped, and more fit for purpose.

Registration is encouraged from potential users or practitioners of Engineering Biology principles as well as those who are already using such approaches. Come along to hear from our experts, join the discussion and find out more!"

Hundreds of your colleagues from Argentina to Australia and from Serbia to Switzerland will be presenting their research at the Conference on Microbiology, taking place in Belgrade, Serbia, 30 June - 2 July 2022. Meet peers who share your scientific interests and enjoy cutting-edge science, from new infectious pathogens to environmental microbiology.
Join us for this exciting event and take advantage of the low early-bird rates.

3 - 5 June, 2022
Peñíscola - Spain

The Technical Skills Certificate is the latest initiative by the Royal Society of Biology, which follows on from the successful launch of the Industry Skills Certificate in 2019. This certificate is designed to support the career development of technical staff working in higher education, industry or in a private laboratory
