SFB 1535 MibiNet "Microbial networking – from organelles to cross-kingdom communities"

In nature, microorganisms interact and communicate with one another, exchanging nutrients and information, an active process we call "networking".

MibiNet aims to understand microbial networking in its full complexity to explain how organelles evolve and how the microbiome functions.

Maßgeschneiderte Mikroben-Gemeinschaften

Wie können Computermodelle dabei helfen, mikrobielle Gemeinschaften zu designen? Im Rahmen des von der Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf (HHU) koordinierten Sonderforschungsbereichs SFB1535 „MibiNet“ untersuchte ein Forschungsteam aus Aachen, Düsseldorf und East Lansing / USA die Entwicklungsperspektiven der sogenannten Synthetischen Biologie. In der Fachzeitschrift Synthetic Biology erläutern sie, warum sie der rechnergestützten Biologie dabei eine besondere Rolle beimessen.
