Science up Close – biocyc Biotechnologie Launches Cooperation with the Mtl School at the Health Campus
Press Release biocyc Biotechnologie | Experience the future, research hands-on: Biotechnology expert biocyc Biotechnologie GmbH & Co. KG opens its new laboratory building at the Potsdam Science Park to students. In cooperation with the MTL School at the Potsdam Health Campus, young people can explore the workflows of a modern laboratory – with a special focus on immunohistochemical (IHC) analyses, which play a key role in cancer diagnostics.
The initiative was launched by Alexander Gorczyza, CEO of the company. The partnership with the MTL School at the Potsdam Health Campus was established in September 2024 to develop a practical concept for a two-day student internship. Participants gain insights into laboratory work, diagnostic methods, and how to handle unexpected results. They are guided by an experienced team of MTAs and researchers who share their expertise from research, development, and production.
“Laboratory work is more than pipettes and protocols. It’s about curiosity, precision, and the courage to learn from mistakes. Once you’ve experienced that, you see science differently,” says Alexander Gorczyza.
For the students, the internship offers a direct look behind the scenes of modern biotechnology – at a location that connects innovation and talent development.
