Title
A holistic approach to training a new generation of scientists in marine biodiscovery (HOTBIO)
General information
Marine microbial natural products: from seabed to bedside
Biologically active compounds produced by microorganisms that live in marine environments have the potential to be developed into new drugs and treatments for various diseases. These marine microbial natural products often have unique structures and biological activities. With the support of the Marie Sk艂odowska-Curie Actions programme, the HOTBIO project will train early-stage scientists to bring these products from discovery to commercialisation. This involves every stage of the drug discovery pipeline, including microbial isolation, compound purification, identification, analogue synthesis and drug development. The project鈥檚 goal is to create a new generation of scientists that can bring these promising compounds to the bedside, where they can have a positive impact on human health.
