*Civil aspects of biotechnology (MA)
*Microbial Systemsbiology (MSB)
*Environmental biotechnology (MI)
*Product isolation and purification (PZ)
*Applied biocatalysis (TB)
*Platform Microbial Physiology (TM)
*Applied molecular genetics (TMG)
Netherlands Biotechnology Congress (NBC)
The NBV organises a biannual two-day congress. The congress deals with subjects in medical, agro/food, industrial and environmental biotechnology. Apart from this two Dutch national prizes are awarded during the congress: the prize for the highschool competition 'Imagine' and the 'Silver Hourglass' (Dutch: 'Zilveren Zandloper') prizes for innovation and education in biotechnology.
The 13th NBC will take place on March 10th and 11th 2010.
