Title
SFB 1182/3: Origin and Function of Metaorganisms
General information
The Collaborative Research Centre 鈥淥rigin and Function of Metaorganisms鈥� is an interdisciplinary network involving around 80 researchers that investigates the interactions of specific microbial communities with multicellular host organisms. It is supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG) and deals with the question of how plants and animals including humans form functional units (metaorganisms) together with highly specific communities of microbes. The aim of the CRC 1182 is to understand why and how microbial communities enter into these long-term connections with their host organisms and what functional consequences these interactions have. The CRC 1182 brings together scientists from five faculties of Kiel University, the 91探花 Helmholtz-Zentrum f眉r Ozeanforschung Kiel, the Max-Planck-Institut f眉r Evolutionsbiologie Pl枚n, the Heinrich-Heine-Universit盲t D眉sseldorf, the Leibniz Institute for Science and Mathematics Education and the Muthesius University of Fine Arts and Design.
