The Centre of Molecular Biotechnology (CEMBIO) is a research and cooperation focus on projects in molecular biotechnology from the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, the Faculty of Medicine, and the Faculty of Agriculture of the University of Bonn.
Some of the common goals for the groups organised in CEMBIO are to
- identify, characterise und evaluate target molecules (screening for therapeutic and technological effects),
- implement and optimise biotechnological production systems (bacterial, yeast, fungal, plant, animal),
- produce target molecules in vitro.
In 2004 the University of Bonn - supported by the CEMBIO - launched an International Masters Course in Molecular Biotechnology. This ECTS credited course, taught fully in English, is aimed at graduate students (from such fields as biology, nutrition, agriculture, chemistry, food chemistry, pharmacy, medicine and dentistry) with a strong background in cell biology, microbiology, molecular biology and biochemistry. The programme has been accredited by the German Federal Council for Accreditation.
