Welcome to the 11th International Conference on High Pressure Bioscience and Biotechnology (HPBB2022)
The HPBB2022 conference will be held 5 July - 8 July 2022 at Thorvaldsensvej 40, 1871 Frederiksberg C, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark.
NEWS! An online version will take place in parallel. The conference is a real-life / physical event in Copenhagen, but due to Covid restrictions in some countries, we have decided to offer the opportunity to participate online. Therefore, it is possible to register as an online participant. Moreover, it will be possible to give online oral presentations, see under "Presentations".
The 11th International Conference on High Pressure Bioscience and Biotechnology (HPBB2022) will be held from July 5th to July 8th, 2022, at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark. This will be the first HPBB conference in Scandinavia.
HPBB2022 addresses the elucidation of effects, mechanistic understanding and knowledge-based exploitation of high pressure induced changes in various biological systems. The conference will bring together scientists, students and professionals to maximise the application of high pressure technology and to learn about exciting research in high pressure bioscience and biotechnology in the frame of sustainability. Sustainability will be a new overarching topic for the first time in the history of HPBB conferences and we encourage presentations and discussions addressing the UN’s Sustainable Developing Goals. To achieve a better and more sustainable future for us and our planet, the high pressure technology has special potential to meet the SDGs 2: zero hunger, 3: good health and well-being, and 12: responsible consumption and production.
Therefore, HPBB2022 is a great opportunity for presenting and discussing research and the latest developments relevant to applications of high pressure across the HP subspecialties: food science, biochemistry & biophysics, microbiology & cell biology, medicine & pharmacology, and analytical technologies.
The conference will include keynote lectures as well as oral and poster presentations by the attendees, but the backbone of HPBB2022 is the knowledge-sharing forum.
The International Association of High Pressure Bioscience and Biotechnology (HPBB) was established in 1998. The HPBB conference is a meeting among fellows to have fruitful discussions about the most recent and exciting research in high pressure in the many scientific disciplines covering bioscience and biotechnology. In addition, it is an opportunity to exchange ideas and socialize in an informal setting.

May we introduce Scandinavia’s greatest little kingdom, steeped in a rich history yet home to a modern welfare state, always looking to the future. Denmark is a country in Northern Europe with a population of 5.7 million. The country is surrounded by water and is characterised by flat, arable land, sandy coasts, and a temperate climate with warm summers and mild winters. It is also privileged to have large quantities of clean underground water to be able to cover the entire country’s water needs including domestic consumption, agriculture and industry.
The Danes enjoy a high standard of living, and Denmark ranks highly in numerous comparisons of national performance, including education, health care, protection of civil liberties, democratic governance, prosperity, and human development. As such, the Danes have frequently been ranked the happiest and least corrupt people in the world.
Copenhagen was founded originally as a Viking fishing village in the 10th century, and became Denmark’s capital in the early 15th century. During the 17th century, under the reign of King Christian IV, it underwent a comprehensive modernization and expansion that made the city Denmark's principal fortification and naval port as well as the main centre of trade in Northern Europe. Today Copenhagen’s population is 1.2 million.
Copenhagen is placed 4th (2016) out of 25 as the most liveable city in the ranking in the Mercer Quality of Living Index and has several times been ranked the “World’s Most Liveable City”.
Safety, tolerance, green initiatives, international connectivity, creative environment, a relaxed lifestyle, cycle culture, democratic design and the active use of city spaces are among the key reasons why Copenhagen has been called the world's best city according to British lifestyle magazine, Monocle.
Copenhagen is a very safe choice. The locals walk and cycle in the city around the clock, and Copenhagen has a welcoming and open atmosphere. The Global Peace Index rates Denmark as no 2 (2016) as the world’s most peaceful countries.
Copenhagen is an easily accessible and compact city in which most of the hotels, restaurants, venues, sights and shops are within walking distance of each other. Alternatively, the city's efficient public transport makes covering longer distances effortless.
Visa Regulations and Requirements
Participants from countries within the Schengen Area will not need a visa to visit Denmark. The same is the case for participants from Asia, North- and Latin America.
The Danish Immigration Service regularly publishes an updated list of the countries for which Denmark requires a visa.
The list can be found here:
www.nyidanmark.dk/en-us/coming_to_dk/visa/need_visa/who_needs_visa.htm
Persons whose country of origin is not on the list may stay in Denmark for up to three months without contacting the Danish authorities. Congress participants must apply for a visa in good time at Danish Diplomatic and Consular Posts in their countries of domicile. If you apply less than 14 days before departure, the Danish Immigration Service cannot guarantee that you will obtain your visa in time.
You can get more information at The Danish Immigration Service: www.nyidanmark.dk
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs also has a specific page where you can see where to send visa applications if Denmark does not have a diplomatic mission in the country concerned.
