CBQF Day 2026: Biotechnology for a Changing World

The Centre for Biotechnology and Fine Chemistry (CBQF) Day is an event that aims to highlight the growth of CBQF as an Associated Laboratory dedicated to research in Biotechnology applied to different areas, namely Food, Environment and Resources, and Bio-based and Biomedical Products. In this edition, we will explore these themes by considering the extent to which the research carried out by the different CBQF research groups contributes to creating real, impactful biotechnological responses to the various challenges that the world today poses to us as researchers.
