Overview
About the course
- This intensive Modelling and Computation for Micro-organisms in Bioprocesses course at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) aims at active participation by those attending.
- A combination of theoretical (lectures) and practical (exercises, case study) work is offered. The course is build up around a few currently relevant biotechnological systems (e.g., lactic acid fermentations, antibiotic production, aerobic/anaerobic processes).
- Applications will be demonstrated with numerical models at all relevant scales, from factory and bioreactor to cell aggregate and intracellular processes, Particular emphasis will be on the identification of mechanisms and parameters, as well as on integration of scales to maximize complete system insight.
Programme Structure
The course will focus on the following themes:- Industrial bioprocess design, integration and flowsheeting
- Gradients (concentration, shear rate, temperature) in bioreactors coupled to dynamic microbial response and compartmented kinetic models
- Industrial fermentation models with computational fluid dynamics and reaction dynamics by Euler-Lagrange approach and cell lifelines
- Micro-gradients in multicellular aggregates (biofilms, granules, tissues)
- Single-cell models including membrane transport, metabolic variation, intracellular dynamics and genetic diversity

Student insurance
Make sure to cover your health, travel, and stay while studying abroad. Even global coverages can miss important items, so make sure your student insurance ticks all the following:
- Additional medical costs (i.e. dental)
- Repatriation, if something happens to you or your family
- Liability
- Home contents and baggage
- Accidents
- Legal aid
