In our group, we work a lot with Pseudomonas putida, a promising host for biotechnology. This year, SBT will organize the 3rd Pseudomonas Grassroots Meeting (09.11.-10.11.), an international meeting which is all about working with bacteria from the Pseudomonas genus. For more information, have a… [read more]

We started the new semester by offering the practical course Applied System Biotechnology for the very first time. In this practical course, the students are asked to cultivate a recombinant bacterial strain (with two different gene constructs for fluorescent proteins) in a 3.6-L bioreactor, record… [read more]
