The RSC Biotechnology Group welcomes you to this exciting one-day symposium, a follow-up to a meeting of the same title run in 2017. This second meeting in the series will highlight recent achievements, future challenges and current trends in the use of biotransformations and biocatalysis in the industrial biotechnology sector. The focus is on the discovery, modification and industrial application of novel enzymes for biocatalysis, as well as analytical and process engineering, synthetic biology, computational biology, biochemistry, microbiology, and chemistry, that are being harnessed to deliver new biocatalysts for the synthesis of chemical products.
