What is Micro B3?
Micro B3 stands for “Microbial Biodiversity, Bioinformatics and Biotechnology“ which reflects the three main pillars the project addresses. The central concept of this collaborative project (large-scale integrating project) is to team up an interdisciplinary and intersectoral set of world class European researchers to overcome current obstacles in marine biodiversity research and blue biotechnology. Micro B3 fully addresses the Ocean of Tomorrow Call Topic OCEAN.2011-2: “Marine microbial diversity – new insights into marine ecosystems functioning and its biotechnological potential”.
