MICROBE HUNTERS – CAPTURING ELUSIVE MICROBES

OUR VISION

Elusive Microbes – cultivating, understanding and applying
We aim to bring elusive microbes into axenic culture, to characterize them and to gain a deep understanding of their environmental interactions, their cell biology and their ability to support human health and well-being.

The mission of our department is to push the boundaries of scientific knowledge by exploring the fascinating world of understudied or uncultivated bacteria. We are dedicated to unraveling the mysteries hidden within microbial communities and harnessing their untapped potential for biotechnological applications and the environment. Our research group is driven by a deep curiosity about the vast diversity of uncultivated bacteria that inhabit diverse ecosystems on our planet. We recognize that these microorganisms represent an immense reservoir of biological innovation and possess unique adaptations that can contribute to solving pressing global challenges. Through cutting-edge interdisciplinary research, we aim to understand the ecological roles, evolutionary dynamics, and metabolic capabilities of uncultivated bacteria. By leveraging advanced genomic, metagenomic, and bioinformatic approaches, we strive to decipher the genetic blueprints of these elusive microorganisms and gain insights into their functional attributes.
