About the Department

The project will take place at Chalmers tekniska högskola, within the Division of Industrial Biotechnology. The division is an interdisciplinary group with approximately 45 international researchers focusing on microbiology, enzymology, and molecular biology. Our goal is to use renewable resources for sustainable production of fuels, chemicals, and materials, contributing to a sustainable society and circular economy.
