“The H2020-MSCA-RISE offered me an invaluable opportunity to get in contact with an elite class of brilliant minds in their fields from three continents and of different specialities. It was a turning point in my career path that enriched and diversified my expertise while being hosted at various partner institutions in the project. The earned advancement through H2020-MSCA-RISE was not limited to scientific but extended to personal perspectives.”
MYCOBIOMICS
Joining forces to exploit the mycobiota of Asia, Africa and Europe for beneficial metabolites and potential biocontrol agents, using -OMICS techniques
The H2020-MSCA-RISE GoMyTRi project has successfully paved the way for international collaboration between three global research leaders from Germany, the Netherlands and Thailand. With partners specialised in applied mycology, the project explores beneficial secondary metabolites for the development of antibiotics and identifies potential candidates for the development of environmentally friendly fungal biocontrol agents. The EU-funded MYCOBIOMICS project expands the collaboration to carefully selected partners from Austria, Czech Republic, Kenya and South Africa for implementing omics technologies and studies on the interaction of fungal organisms to discover new bioactive molecules. The project also characterises the mycobiota of important agricultural plants.
