In its fourth edition, the IBSB: Brazilian CAZyme Research Meeting will gather the main topics on carbohydrate enzymology research carried out in Brazil, with speakers from different institutions.

The meeting will count on the participation of Prof. Bernard Henrissat (Technical University of Denmark, DTU), founder of CAZy database and one of the leading international names in the glycofield. The event will be held in person and aims to promote the exchange of knowledge between researchers and expand the collaboration network.

The Industrial Biotechnology and Synthetic Biology (IBSB) event series is organized by the Brazilian Biorenewables National Laboratory (LNBR), one of the four National Laboratories of the Brazilian Center for Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM). This initiative brings together the national scientific community, with the objective to promote joint initiatives on major challenges for the valorization of lignocellulosic materials.

Undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and professionals with an interest in industrial enzymes working in any area of Biotechnology.

The event will be limited to a restricted number of seats to allow interaction among participants. Registrants must be involved with Biotechnology (including, for example, enzymology, structural biology, microbiology, bioprocess, and omics). They will be selected according to the order of their registration and the proximity of their area of expertise to the scope of the event. All selected participants will be communicated via e-mail.

The meeting will take place on the CNPEM campus. CNPEM is located at Rua Giuseppe Máximo Scolfaro, 10.000 – Polo II de Alta Tecnologia de Campinas
