A testbed for biological production
Professor Bengt Carlsson reached out to the Testa Center in February 2021 with an ask. “Would it be possible to have students in the Testa Center using bioreactors to learn PID control?” he asked, yes, certainly we said. After two short visits to the laboratory and Bengt and the Testa Center staff prepared the experiment …

Today it’s not only about drug discovery. Production is also a hot topic, especially finding the ability, knowledge, and competence required to work successfully with advanced bioproduction of biologics in a continuous process. At the Swedish competence centre, AdBIOPRO, research specialists in both upstream and downstream processing from KTH, The Royal Institute of Technology, Lund …
The iGEM competition The International Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM) competition is an annual and worldwide synthetic biology competition. The event attracts about 6 000 participants who are undergraduate university students, as well as high school and graduate students. Uppsala University has a strong history in the education of biology. Students from Uppsala have also been participating in …
