Microbiome biobanking: Bridging technical challenges, data management and regulation

On 9th December, 5 pm (CET), an online webinar will be held in cooperation between our MICROBE project and US Culture Collection Network, Phytobiomes Alliance. This webinar will present key outcomes and lessons learned from the EU-funded MICROBE project (https://www.microbeproject.eu/) as it approaches completion, focusing on the integration of microbiome biobanking, data management, and regulatory frameworks.

Interesting results and achievements from MICROBE will be presented by our project coordinator, Dr. Tanja Kostic, Garmana Baldi and Amber Scholz. The webinar will conclude with a forward-looking discussion on remaining challenges, opportunities for harmonization across infrastructures, and how MICROBE's outputs can support the broader uptake of microbiome-based solutions in science and industry.
