RapidFermTech is in full swing this week! 🔬🚀 Cohort 2 of the RapidFermTech Program just wrapped up an action-packed first week at the Verschuren Centre—and they crushed it! Here's what they’ve been up to: 🧼 Mastering sterile techniques, lab equipment, and media prep for growth success. 🔎 Diving deep into growth curves, fermentation parameters, and strain improvement strategies. 🧪 Getting hands-on with E. coli in a 10L bioreactor and perfecting culture management. But that’s just the beginning - next week, they’ll level up to 100L-1000L reactors for large-scale fermentation. Shout-out to Megan Hiscock and the Verschuren Centre team for helping shape the next generation of fermentation technicians!🎉 #RapidFermTech #Fermentation #Bioeconomy #UpskillCanada #NovaScotia
