Welcome to biocat2026!It is our great pleasure to invite you to the 12th International Congress on Biocatalysis (biocat2026), taking place 23–27 August 2026 at the Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH), Germany.
biocat has been a biennial meeting point for our community since 2002, bringing together researchers and innovators from academia and industry to share breakthroughs, build collaborations, and inspire the next generation of biocatalysis.
This year’s program will spotlight emerging frontiers across our field − from AI-driven enzyme engineering and reaction prediction, advanced electro-/chemo-/photo-biocatalytic cascades, and enzyme mining & metagenomics to non-conventional media, modular bioprocess engineering and automation, synthetic biology & whole-cell catalysis, and biocatalysis for the circular bioeconomy (including CO₂ valorization and plastic upcycling). Expect cutting-edge plenaries and invited talks, lively poster sessions, and a vibrant industrial exhibition that showcases how ideas translate into impactful technologies.
We look forward to welcoming you to Hamburg for an engaging week of science, discussion, and community.
