About the Hub

The Hub aims to increase the visibility and synergism of TAU researchers working with microbiomes at all levels. We host events and programs that highlight research advances in microbial biology, broadly defined. A major goal is to catalyze increased collaboration between scientists, leading to more joint grant funding, training opportunities and international recognition of the research strengths at TAU.

 Objectives: 

• Bring together scientists working with microbes to build an interactive community and to energize research directions
• Facilitate new interdisciplinary research opportunities and approaches
• Enhance training opportunities for researchers and students
• Encourage funding opportunities for collaborative projects 
• Acquire funding for common equipment that will benefit the community of researchers working with microbiomes
• Promote increased interest and visibility for researchers studying microbes and their interactions with each other and with their hosts
