Practical Laboratory Workshop on Fermentation Technology at the University of Westminster, School of Life Sciences, London

The School of Life Sciences at the University of Westminster in London recently conducted a practical laboratory workshop focused on fermentation technology. This hands-on workshop was designed to provide participants with a thorough understanding of the processes and applications involved in fermentation, a key technology in biotechnology and bioengineering sectors. Participants gained practical experience through direct involvement in setting up and monitoring fermentation processes, learning about the optimization of conditions for different microbial and biochemical products. The workshop covered a range of topics from microbial growth kinetics to the commercial production of bioproducts, such as pharmaceuticals, foods, and biofuels. This educational event not only enhanced the technical skills of the attendees but also allowed them to engage with experts in the field, fostering a collaborative environment for future innovations in fermentation technology.
