Bioactive molecules from marine animal biomasses

Pré-requis nécessaires

Bases of biology, biochemistry, enzyme engineering, microbial engineering.
Possibly, bases of marine biology and ecology.

Objectifs

The objective is to make the student ready to develop and propose a comprehensive approach for enhancing the value of fisheries and aquaculture products from animal origin (including by-products) for the development of new added-value molecules and ingredients, intended for food, feed, aquaculture, cosmetics, …
Marine biotechnologies are targeting niche markets by offering products with low volumes and high added-values, and also mass markets like bio-sourced polymers.

Compétences visées

Learning outcomes:

- A comprehensive vision of blue biotechnologies on a worldwide scale.
- The capacity to identify the research teams and research activities for establishing collaborations.
- The ability to identify the emerging markets, their size and their potential.
- The ability to transpose data and concepts of the scientific literature into R & D approaches integrating scaling-up.
- The capacity to explain the biological activities and functionality of molecules to non-specialists while having a dialogue with experts.
- The ability to inject new ideas, and to create innovative products.
- The ability to understand what is hindering and driving in marine process, and to choose the most appropriate strategy for achieving the final objective.
