For thousands of years, fungi have been integral to the production of bread, beer, or antibiotics. But what transformative potential do fungi hold for shaping a sustainable biotechnology? Can fungi pave the way for a greener, more sustainable future?
In this episode our special guests Prof. Dr.-Ing. Vera Meyer and Prof. Dr. Peter Neubauer from TU Berlin, alongside Prof. Dr. Heiko Briesen from TU Munich, address these questions and more. They also explore how fungi-based materials can revolutionize the petroleum-based industry and play a crucial role in mitigating climate change.
InterZell, funded by the DFG as a priority program (SPP 2170), focuses on cell-cell and cell-bioreactor interactions, bridging biological research with engineering principles in modern biochemical engineering. For more information, visit https://www.spp2170.uni-stuttgart.de/
