We contribute to advance scientific knowledge on bio-sustainability by using a combined approach of hypothesis-driven research and high-throughput technologies. To that end, CBMA is organised in four Research Groups (RGs) reflecting complementary scientific expertise and approaches.
RESEARCH GROUPS
By tackling the complexity of biological systems across distinct levels of organization, from molecules to the biosphere, our research converges on Integrative Biology. Our research groups are strongly aligned with the EU strategy and its various plans and actions, as well as the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
The interdisciplinar collaboration among RGs and our deep knowledge on biodiversity serves as a foundation for the discovery of novel molecular targets and cellular pathways, as well the development of environmentally-friendly processes and bioproducts. The use of cross-disciplinary approaches allows us to assess, model, and forecast biodiversity and ecosystem dynamics in response to environmental change in aquatic and agro-ecosystems.
