This is the first of a newly created metabolic engineering (ME) workshop series sponsored by the International Metabolic Engineering Society, entitled Metabolic Engineering Summit 2017, to be held in Beijing, China. This international conference will bring together established researchers, young investigators, private sector scientists and engineers as well as graduate students to assess the present and chart the future of the rapidly developing field of metabolic engineering. To encourage interaction and further discussions, the entire meeting is held in a single-track format, with most meals taken together and with multiple social hours and poster sessions (typically presented by students, postdocs, or junior faculty/scientists). The theme of the MES workshop is termed "Metabolic Engineering in the era of Synthetic Biology". This conference is designed to achieve several NSF missions, including; enhancing collaboration with international communities, integrating the engineering sciences with the life sciences, encouraging research and development in multidisciplinary areas, and educating the next generation of young scientists.The elements of the meeting will include a plenary address from Gregory Stephanopoulos (MIT, USA, scientific talks from leaders in the field, held in plenary format (no concurrent sessions), and poster sessions, with an emphasis on participation from graduate students, postdocs, and young investigators, held in the evenings. Session topics will include: Production of natural products using ME; Advancing a bio-economy using ME; ME as an enabling technology for driving innovation; and Using ME to address challenges of biorefineries.

这是由国际代谢工程学会主办的代谢工程（ME）研讨会系列的第一个，名为代谢工程峰会2017，将在中国北京举行。这次国际会议将汇集成熟的研究人员，年轻的研究人员，私营部门的科学家和工程师以及研究生，以评估目前和图表代谢工程的快速发展领域的未来。为了鼓励互动和进一步的讨论，整个会议以单轨形式举行，大多数用餐都在一起，并有多个社交时间和海报会议（通常由学生，博士后或初级教师/科学家提出）。MES研讨会的主题是“合成生物学时代的代谢工程”。本次会议旨在实现几个NSF任务，包括;加强与国际社会的合作，将工程科学与生命科学相结合，鼓励多学科领域的研究和发展，并教育下一代年轻科学家。会议的内容包括格雷戈里·斯蒂芬诺普洛斯在全体会议上的讲话（麻省理工学院，美国，该领域领导人的科学讲座，以全体会议的形式举行（没有同时举行的会议），海报会议，重点是研究生，博士后和年轻研究人员的参与，在晚上举行。会议主题将包括：使用ME生产天然产品;使用ME推进生物经济; ME作为推动创新的使能技术;以及使用ME应对生物精炼的挑战。
