Systems biotechnology and metabolic engineering

Edited by: Prof Sang Yup Lee

Microbial Cell Factories invites submissions to this special thematic series on the topic of Systems biotechnology and metabolic engineering. It is now time to exploit systems approaches to microbial biotechnology, starting with up-stream (strain, cell and organism development) by metabolic engineering, which will ultimately lead to successful biotechnology development when combined with systems engineering of mid- to down-stream processes.

Please see here for further details, including how to submit your new work to the series.
