> Technologies 2012

BioVaria's technologies are presented as an all-day poster exhibition that enables industry representatives to gain a unique overview of undiscovered, licensable technologies and to discuss scientific details face-to-face with the inventors.
Additionally half of the technologies (marked with an *) will also be presented as 10-min talks.
