Level 1 of 2 bioreactor training courses: provided in partnership with Applikon

Our 2-day course “Introduction to Bioreactors” enables scientists to rapidly acquire the skills they need to set up and operate a bioreactor. Our emphasis is on cell culture-based applications, but provides a valuable introduction for anyone who would like to gain a general overview of bioreactor technology. The strong practical component and follow-up technical support ensures delivery of an effective, relevant training package.
