Section overview
Description
Research and teaching in the Department emphasize the importance of key microorganisms in various biological cycles and habitats. Microbial communities and processes are studied at both the cellular and ecosystem levels. A wide range of methods are used in the laboratory and under field conditions. These methods are taught in various courses and include specialized cultivation techniques, microsensor measurements, and molecular biological methods.
