Microbiology

Two petri dishes held up by gloved hands, showing bacterial lysis by phages.

Antimicrobial resistance, phages, biofilms, and microbiomes – we explore the complexity of the microbial world.

We bring together cross‑disciplinary expertise to uncover microbial mechanisms, innovate new interventions, and translate fundamental discoveries into impactful applications across health, agriculture, and the environment.
