Workshop with Panel Discussion

With model-based simulation and optimization, resources can be used more efficiently, a high level of added value can be ensured and innovation cycles can be shortened. Mathematical models, algorithms and data science are key drivers of this development.

On November 7th, 2025, the High Performance Center Simulation and Software-Based Innovation, in cooperation with the Fraunhofer Institutes for Industrial Mathematics ITWM and Microengineering and for Microsystems IMM will organize the workshop »AI and Simulation in Biotechnology« with outstanding invited speakers and contributions from Fraunhofer researchers and from process industry. 

The workshop will provide a unique opportunity for scientific discussion and personal networking between scientists from academia and industry to reflect on and help shape the future of biotechnology.
