At the Biotechnical Faculty, and in collaboration with the Society of microbiology student of Slovenia (DŠMBS), we have organized 3-day Microbiological Summer School with practical courses in the laboratories of Biotechnical faculty. The Summer school integrated practical activities of students working in the laboratories, as well as morning lectures, with lecturers from different faculties (including Biotechnical faculty, Faculty for Pharmacy) and other institutions such as University hospital »Clinical center«, and industry including lecturers from Acies Bio d.o.o., Lek d.d., Krka d.d., CO COBIK etc. Lectures covered various areas of the antibiotic drug discovery and development, proces development, biosynthesis, production and use of antibiotics. The Summer school was very succesful, considering arround 90 students participated in the 3 day course.

COBISS.SI-ID: 4435576Based on invited lecture, the authors presented in the review article development of new tetracycline antibiotics, which has progressed very rapidly during last decade. These include the tetracyclines of the third generation, so-called glycylcyclines, one of which is already being used in the clinic, while two additional tetracycline analogs are in the proces of advanced clinical evaluation. In addition, the authors presented recent results in the development of the synthetic tetracyclines as well as biosynthetic efforts in the development of so-called »atypical« tetracyclines by applying synthetic biology approaches. Authors presented their own contribution related to the development of new tetracycline matrices by applying biosynthetic engineering approaches. Based on the lecture review article was published by the Croatian Academy of Engineers (2014, p. 19-32.)
