The Enzyme Engineering Conference is the longest, continuous conference series that is sponsored by the Engineering Foundation. The first meeting was held in New Hampshire in 1971 and every other year thereafter. The meetings alternate between domestic and foreign locales. The conferences are generally attended by 150-200 world leaders in enzyme engineering research. Over half of the speakers are from foreign nations. The emphasis of the 1999 conference has been placed on "directed evolution approaches for biocatalyst improvement and on the use of biocatalysis in the chemical industry." Among the key sessions planned are:Biodiversity/new enzyme discoveryDirected enzyme evolutionAdvances in enzyme designEnzyme based processes in the chemical industryNew biotransformationsCombinatorial biocatalysis/pathway engineeringNew developmentsThe conference will provide an excellent opportunity for U.S. researchers to network with foreign scientists in the field, many of whom come from countries with extensive enzyme-use history.

酶工程会议是由工程基金会赞助的最长、连续的系列会议。第一次会议于1971年在新罕布什尔州举行，此后每隔一年举行一次。会议轮流在国内和国外举行。这些会议通常有150-200位酶工程研究领域的世界领袖参加。超过一半的发言者来自外国。1999年会议的重点是“生物催化剂改进的定向进化方法和生物催化在化学工业中的应用”。计划的主要会议包括：生物多样性/新酶发现、定向酶进化、酶设计进展、化学工业中基于酶的过程、新生物转化、组合生物催化/途径工程、新发展会议将为美国研究人员提供与该领域的外国科学家交流的绝佳机会，其中许多科学家来自具有广泛酶使用历史的国家。
