Microbes 4 Climate EU Project

MICROBES-4-CLIMATE (M4C) aims to deepen the comprehension of the complex relationships among microorganisms, plants, and soil within the framework of Climate Change. By offering access to advanced Research Infrastructures (RIs), training, and assistance, the project seeks to encourage research tackling the multifaceted challenges presented by Climate Change to terrestrial biodiversity and ecosystems. By exploring these interactions, M4C strives to advance the understanding and facilitate the applied research directed at enhancing the resilience of plants and crops to the effects of Climate Change, thereby promoting sustainable and resilient agricultural methods. The MICROBES-4-CLIMATE project will last for 5 years (2024-2029) and it is coordinated by the Microbial Resource Research Infrastructure, MIRRI-ERIC. Its expertise joins forces from 31 partners from 13 countries in a collaboration between top universities and research centres, including with non-profit organizations and private sector entities.
