Are you cycling to campus? Good idea! Our campus is easily accessible by bike. After your classes, leave our underground bicycle park to go home... or a cafe.

The Biochemical Innovation Team at Odisee conducts applied research focused on the valorisation of biological side streams and residual materials. We support companies and organisations in transforming underutilised biomass into value‑added ingredients and products for applications in food, cosmetics and related sectors.

Our expertise lies in the biochemical and analytical characterisation of residual streams, the evaluation of processing and stabilisation strategies, and the assessment of functional properties in relevant product matrices. By combining laboratory‑scale experimentation with product‑oriented testing, we help partners identify realistic pathways for upscaling and application.

Projects are carried out in close collaboration with industrial partners and integrated with education, with a strong emphasis on feasibility, applicability and knowledge transfer. Through this practice‑oriented approach, the team supports innovation trajectories that contribute to more efficient use of raw materials and the development of economically relevant and environmentally sustainable solutions within a circular economy context.

In the following course, you choose laboratory work because you want to join the research of diseases in humans, plants, or animals. The meticulous execution of laboratory research is the focal point of the programme. Each affiliated laboratory offers a wide range of laboratory tests and uses up-to-date instrumentation.
