International Conference on Metabolic & Protein Engineering for Biosynthesis
12-13 November 2026
MaPEB – the International Conference on Metabolic and Protein Engineering for Biosynthesis sets the stage for the cutting-edge intersections of metabolic and protein engineering, with a specific focus on the engineering and de novo design of complex biological systems. Our program explores how biosynthetic pathways and metabolic networks can be engineered to solve current challenges.
The MaPEB topics
- Metabolic Engineering: Advanced strategies for the engineering and optimization of both primary and secondary metabolism.
- De novo Design: Techniques for constructing new biosynthetic pathways.
- Protein Engineering: Tailoring enzymes and proteins specifically to drive novel metabolic functions.
- Methodologies: Novel tools and methods in protein engineering to accelerate discovery and application of biocatalysts.
