Grand Chenier, 5th Fl (Sheraton New Orleans)
Convener:
Jeff Running - DOW
Co-Convener:
Peter Punt - Dutch DNA Biotech BV
This session will consider various topics regarding the culturing of filamentous fungi for industrial purposes, including natural product discovery, engineering challenges inherent in the filamentous nature of the organisms, biocontrol agents, enzyme and secondary metabolite production, and biofuel manufacture.
