BioNetworking Event: National Research Council of Canada Presents
Our next BioNetworking Event will be presented by the NRC! Join us for an enlightening session with NRC experts from the Aquatic and Crop Resource Development Research Centre (ACRD) and Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP). They will share insights into developing and adapting biotechnologies in the biomarine and agriculture sectors, and developing innovation in areas such as atypical fermentation, bioprocessing, marine bioproducts, aquatic nutrition, and beyond. Explore the opportunities for R&D support and learn how to collaborate with NRC experts to address your challenges and fill innovation gaps! See you there!
