I think LiMBAC is a very good opportunity to see the advancement on biotechnologies specifically for microalgae and the various applications that microalgae can have and also a good opportunity to listen experts in the field and it was a pleasure to come here and I very recommend this place for other participants on the field.

It was a really interesting course to attend and learn with everyone about the different ways in which algae can be incorporated into different products and different fields. I come from a background of materials engineering, whereby use of biomaterials and biobased products is increasing, so I do think that sustainability, and sustainable products will become important, and will be in higher demand The potential use of algae, seaweed, and other biobased materials will play a key role for the future of the health care industry.
Rahim Jindani
I think this was a very insightful course, not only because it provides the techniques to go from an involucrum to a pilot scale and you can actually see that, but also because has presented the challenge of the sector from the main failures of the past so we can learn for the future, so I think the experience here was really valuable for young algaeneers.
