Research Infrastructure and Technology Platforms
The M4C Cluster of Excellence offers an internationally unique research infrastructure for state of the art molecular microbiological research. Together, the University of Marburg, the Center for Synthetic Microbiology (SYNMIKRO), the Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology and the University of Giessen operate 13 fully staffed technology platforms, which are continuously developed and tailored to enable cutting-edge research. Training for all academic levels is provided in regular workshops.
