Topic 2: Towards diverse, sustainable and circular food processing systems
Seeking collaboration in microbial biotechnology and synthetic biology, with a focus on precision fermentation for recombinant protein synthesis (e.g., dairy proteins). We offer expertise in microbial cultivation, gene cloning, and advanced genetic engineering for high-yield protein expression in yeast or bacterial systems, using both flask-scale and bioreactor processes. Open to research and industrial partnerships.
Vilnius University Life Sciences Center (VU LSC) is a leading research institution and a top-tier hub in Lithuania and the Baltic region, specializing in molecular biology, microbiology, and biotechnology. Our Microbiology and Biotechnology Department focuses on microbial engineering, recombinant protein synthesis, and the development of scalable fermentation processes. We provide expertise in strain development, genetic engineering, and bioprocess optimization. Open to partnerships for developing sustainable biotechnologies, including food-grade protein production and industrial applications.
