The workshop Genomic for a Blue Economy aims at identifying the state-of-the-art of methods, potential challenges, and future directions in the characterization of marine natural compounds and their applications as biotechnological and pharmaceutical products. The huge biodiversity hosted in the oceans stimulate the research for bioactive molecules from marine bioresources for applications in the field of biotechnology.
To exploit these promising biological resources and avoiding impoverishing marine resources, new strategies in the pipeline and a new cohort of cross disciplinary trained scientists are needed.
Systems biology approaches, such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics, are now being adapted to update natural product discovery platforms.
The two days workshop is organized in 4 sessions:
Session 1 - Omics technologies for drug discovery
Session 2 - Innovative OSMAC approach to improve marine secondary metabolism
Session 3 - Synthetic biology and pathways reconstruction
Session 4 - Panel discussion: Genome mining for drug discovery: state of the art and future paths
