Decipher Microbial Interactions and Environmental Responses
We aim to uncover the fundamental principles governing microbial interactions within communities, focusing on how these interactions shape and respond to dynamic environmental conditions.
Leverage Microbial Ecology for a Sustainable Future
By applying insights from microbial ecology, we strive to develop innovative, ecologically sound solutions that contribute to a green and sustainable economy—advancing biotechnologies, bioremediation, and circular bioeconomy systems.
Explore Soil Phages as Ecological and Biotechnological Assets
We investigate bacteriophages (phages) from soil environments to better understand their ecological roles in shaping microbial networks, and to harness their potential for applications in agriculture, microbial control, and biotechnology.
