Technology

Michiels lab

We have built a solid scientific reputation, leading to industry collaborations and several spin-offs

We develop and use state-of-the-art technologies to generate superior microbes for use in medical, industrial, environmental and food applications. We work with industrial partners to develop tailor-made solutions, from microbial cell factories and precision fermentation for production of pharmaceuticals, food additives, bioplastics, biofuels and aroma compounds to generating novel probiotics and better microbes for beer, wine, bread and chocolate production.
