The Department of Biotechnology and Biomedicine (DTU Bioengineering) addresses challenges of societal and scientific importance through basic and applied research, teaching, scientific consulting and dissemination of knowledge within the areas of microbiology, biomedicine and biotechnology.
The department’s research lies within the areas of biochemistry; biophysics; molecular, structural, and cellular biology; enzymology; immunology; microbial ecology and physiology; natural product chemistry; modelling nanotechnology and bioinformatics.
The department mission is, based on a fundamental and technological understanding of biological and molecular systems, to provide research, innovation, education, scientific services, and dissemination of knowledge in the areas biotechnology and biomedicine.
The department vision is, as an international leader in research, education, and innovation in biotechnology and biomedicine, to advance the state-of-the-art in sustainable bioprocesses and contribute to the improvement of human health.
A key focus of the department is the engineering approach to all aspects of biotechnology and biomedicine. This positions the department as a valuable player with unique competences in a growing biobased economy and with health systems transforming towards personalized medicine.
The teaching at the department is anchored in the department’s research at both bachelor, master, and PhD level, thereby ensuring that the students are taught using the newest knowledge within the area.
The department activities put a clear focus on the needs requested by the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries and point towards innovations, new businesses and scientific services within bioremediation, ingredients, material science, biopharmaceuticals, and possibly also bioenergy for the benefit of society. The activities at the department also support many of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
UN Sustainable Development Goals
In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. Our work contributes towards the following SDG(s):
