7th<\/sup> BioProScale Symposium<\/strong><\/p>\n

On March 28.-31., 2022 the 7th<\/sup> BioProScale Symposium<\/a> was conducted on-site with the possibility to follow the presentations online. The symposium was organized by the Chair of Bioprocess Engineering<\/a> (BVT) at the Technische Universit\u00e4t (TU) Berlin, the Institute for Fermentation and Biotechnology in Berlin<\/a> (IfGB) as part of the Versuchs- und Lehranstalt f\u00fcr Brauerei in Berlin<\/a> (VLB e.V.), the Bio-PAT e.V<\/a>. and the BioProScale e.V.<\/p>\n

Finally on-Site<\/strong>
\nAfter the last symposium in 2021, conducted completely virtually, the participants finally met, exchanged ideas and networked in-person. Additionally, online tickets were available to follow the lectures online. The organizers thank all contributors and the audience for their participation, the media partner q&more for the advertisement of the symposium, and especially the exhibitors and sponsors for their support.<\/p>\n

Facts & Numbers
\n<\/strong>223 participants from 14 countries were registered for this event. About 190 persons used the possibility to participate on-site. The symposium consisted of 14 sessions with 42 scientific lectures and 8 great plenary talks as well as 36 poster contributions. Further, 13 exhibitors showed their products and services.
\nThe symposium was split into 2 sub-topics: Part I: \u201eIndustrial Scale – Scaling up and down \u2013 PAT\u201c, Part II: \u201eHigh Throughput Bioprocess Development – Advances in Software, Hardware, and Integration\u201c. The booklet including all abstracts, sponsors and exhibitors and advertisements is available for download<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bio-PAT as exhibitor
\n<\/strong>The network Bio-PAT was one of the exhibitors as well as some of its members, such as the BlueSens gas sensor GmbH<\/a>, Celltainer Biosolutions GmbH<\/a>, Enpresso GmbH<\/a> and KNAUER Wissenschaftliche Ger\u00e4te GmbH<\/a>. More members (AdvaTec\u00ae Analytics GmbH<\/a>, Abacus Analytical Systems GmbH<\/a>, ANiMOX GmbH<\/a>, OSPIN GmbH<\/a>, Sequip S+E GmbH<\/a> and SOPAT GmbH<\/a>) provided information material, which was presented at the Bio-PAT booth.<\/p>\n

Poster and Lecture Awards
\n<\/strong>The organizers thank Bionet<\/a> for sponsoring the poster and the MDPI\u00a0AG<\/a> for sponsoring the lecture prizes and congratulate the winners. With these prizes important works by young scientists were honored.<\/p>\n
