Profile
The Master in Biochemistry and Biotechnology offers scientists not only a thorough knowledge of biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, cell biology and physiology but also the ability to use biochemical and biotechnological techniques in a creative and inventive manner on plants, animals or humans. The students are also initiated in the interesting world of bioinformatics.The training in biochemistry and biotechnology also has a social dimension: to apply research and knowledge in favour of humanity and society. This social involvement is reflected in research on the origin and treatment of all kinds of illnesses (such as cancer, chronic inflammation and metabolic diseases), research on the improvement of plants (sustainable food production, production of food with improved nutritional quality, production of biofuels) and research on the use of micro-organisms in certain chemical processes (detoxification of contaminants).There is a close interaction between education and research in the biochemistry and biotechnology programme, based on a strong and world-famous research tradition of the three departments involved.
