Our CTO, Prof. @pauldcotter.bsky.social joins the authors of the @frontiersin.bsky.social lead article to explore how omics-based mapping of microbial networks across agri-food systems could unlock solutions to some of our biggest global challenges. events.frontiersin.org/agrifood-sys...

Food systems are teeming with complex microbial networks, carried from soil and water to crops, animals, and humans. Can we better track and steer these networks to enhance ecosystem health and food security? Find out more at this #FrontiersForum webinar ➡️ fro.ntiers.in/NfcCnmIEkWb

From soil to sea, microbes quietly power our food systems. Our CTO Prof. @pauldcotter.bsky.social & Dr Orla O'Sullivan were major contributors in a new Frontiers in Science study on harnessing microbiomes for sustainability & health 🌱🌊 seqbiome.com/harnessing-a...
