Jena School for Microbial Communication
The Jena School for Microbial Communication is an interdisciplinary research center in Germany that studies how microbes (like bacteria and fungi) communicate with each other and their environment. Using advanced scientific techniques, the school investigates these interactions to understand microbial behavior, their role in ecosystems, and potential applications in medicine, agriculture, and biotechnology. The goal is to uncover the complex signaling processes that regulate microbial communities, which can lead to innovations in health, industry, and environmental management. It brings together experts from various fields to collaborate on understanding and harnessing microbial communication for societal benefit.
