MICROBES-4-CLIMATE offers researchers access to Research Infrastructures

MICROBES-4-CLIMATE offers researchers from diverse backgrounds convenient access to a range of top-tier Research Infrastructures and their advanced services to investigate the complex interactions among microbiomes, plants, soil, and the environment.

The project MICROBES-4-CLIMATE aims to deepen the comprehension of the complex relationships among microorganisms, plants, and soil within the framework of climate change. By offering access toadvanced Research Infrastructures, training, and assistance, the project seeks to encourage research tackling the multifaceted challenges presented by climate change to terrestrial biodiversity and ecosystems.

MICROBES-4-CLIMATE offers researchers access to Research Infrastructures

MICROBES-4-CLIMATE kicked-off with two days full of sessions to boost the project, from in February 2024. 31 dedicated partners from 13 countries were present in Braga, Portugal at Headquarters of MIRRI-ERIC uniting forces to propel research and unravel the interactions between soil, microorganisms, plants, and the environment. The project has an ambitious quest to elevate our understanding of these relationships. The mission is to provide researchers with an unparalleled and integrated access to a vast network of infrastructures, fostering collaboration and amplifying the collective knowledge on this crucial subject.

An essential element is Transnational access to the MICROBES-4-CLIMATE services and the first call for access will be released at the end of 2024.
