Bioproduction and valorization of microbial biodiversity

A teaching module focused on the professional world, with general introductions to pre-defined themes targeting the biotechnological valorization of microorganisms (antimicrobials, microbiota, probiotics, applied virology, etc.), followed by presentations by industrialists on their background, their company and/or the development of a project. This course covers both red biotechnologies (health applications), and the other colors of biotechnologies (green/agronomy, blue/marine, white/industrial, yellow/environmental).
