About

Metabolic engineering is transforming the way we think about food production, enabling the design of microbes and plants to create desired flavors and textures naturally. This program delves into the scientific, technological, and practical aspects of engineering metabolic pathways for sensory improvements in food. Participants will learn how genetic modifications can enhance taste profiles, create plant-based alternatives with meat-like textures, and reduce reliance on synthetic additives.

The curriculum is designed for those interested in sustainable food innovations. Participants will gain insights into strain design, systems biology, and industrial-scale applications. Case studies on real-world implementations, such as microbial fermentation to produce natural flavors, will be explored.

Please prepare better material with both foundamentals on the topics and manifacturing processes. More It was not a good idea to just use existing slides from other presentations put together.
Other sources for informations should also be presented for self tuition
