From 9 to 12 April, everything at the Munich Exhibition Centre will revolve around Biotechnology. analytica, the world’s leading trade fair for laboratory technology, analytics and Biotechnology, is taking place there, and Mittweida University of Applied Sciences is taking part: Professor Rƶbbe Wünschiers and RenĆ© Kretschmer will be presenting HSMW as a centre for Biotechnology at stand A3.418.

Through its research and the associated Biotechnology degree programme, the Biotechnology and Chemistry Department is making genomic diagnostic methods available to industry. Its partners include fruit-growing farms, beekeepers, dog breeders and other research institutions. Current research priorities include breeding for Varroa resistance, heavy metal detoxification using algae, canine selection markers, the conversion of CO emissions from industrial processes into platform chemicals, and the health of wild bees in agricultural landscapes.

As well as presenting their own research, however, the two biotechnologists also plan to look beyond their own field. Developments in the sector, current topics of focus and the exchange of ideas – they will bring all of this back from Munich to integrate it here into research and teaching.

By the way: all sorts of companies talk about their DNA. Did you know that Mittweida University of Applied Sciences also has a DNA code? Let Professor Wünschiers introduce you to the secrets of genetic information.

Visit us at stand A3.418 (Hall A3), have a chat with us and gain an insight into the world of Biotechnology!
