26th BioSC Lecture: „MicrobiomeSupport“ - coordinated microbiome Research & Innovation (R&I) activities to support international bioeconomy goals
Microbiomes have crucial roles in maintaining life on Earth, and their functions drive human, animal, plant and environmental health. The microbiome research landscape is developing rapidly and is performed in many different science fields using similar concepts but mostly one (eco)system at-a-time. Thus, we are only starting to unravel and understand the interconnectedness of microbiomes across the (eco)systems.
MicrobiomeSupport is a Coordination and Support Action with the overall objective to analyse opportunities and barriers related to the microbiome R&I activities in the food system. The vision: see microbiome products and applications in use that support the transition to a future-proof food system in line with EU´s research and innovation policy Food2030. To achieve this, MicrobiomeSupport established an international network of experts and stakeholders in the microbiome food systems research field.
Dr. Tanja Kostic, Senior Research Engineer, Competence Unit Bioresources at AIT Austrian Institute of Technology GmbH, will hold a lecture about the work and network of MicrobiomeSupport.
