Stephane highlighting the merits of generating MAGs to study food borne microbes (source).

Metagenomics assembled genomes can reveal biaises in cultured food bacterial isolates and help identifying new species and strains.

In addition, Marie co-organized the Microbial ecology session with Maria Marco (UC Davis) and gave a key note lecture: “Overview on the microbial ecological basis of food spoilage and preservation”.

A seed meeting between INRAE Micalis Institute and Imperial College London

Last week on October 3rd, scientists from Imperial College London (ICL) and from INRAE Micalis Institute were hosted by the French embassy in London for a seed meeting around synthetic biology and synthetic microbial ecology as scientific strategies for biotechnology and food production. A special thanks to the organizer: Ludovic Drouin (French Embassy), Young-Kyoung Park (Micalis) and Rodriguo Ledesma-Amaro (ICL). Our several groups with complementary research discussed about perspectives of future collaborations on the field together with Ferment du Futur or Bezos Centre.
