◼ Research Department (Group/Team): Microbiology and Biotechnology

◼ Research Field

    - At the department we have organized our research interests in working groups which address four main research areas:
i) bacteriophage research, ii) research on foodborne pathogens and food spoilage bacteria, iii) microbial ecology including food and gut microbiota and gut biology, as well as iv) molecular analytics. The latter research working group is responsible for our high throughput sequencing using Illumina and MinION technologies and the bioinformatic analysis of genomic, transcriptomic and metagenomic data.
