Microbiology
Microbiology is the study of microscopic organisms. Microbiology encompasses numerous sub-disciplines including virology, mycology, parasitology, and bacteriology.
Department of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology
We undertake fundamental and applied research on plant-microbe interactions, mycology, microbial ecology and evolution, as well as biodiversity. Central themes are forest and plant pathology, and

Applied Biomolecular NMR Spectroscopy
The course gives an overview about NMR strategies that can be performed on biomolecules, such as proteins, peptides, carbohydrates, lipids, and small metabolites. The main objective is to provide the
Proteases
Proteases cleave polypeptide chains and, in this way, modulate activity of target proteins and downstream pathways. Our current efforts are to unravel structure-function relationships of metacaspases

Honey Bee Health
We study the transmission of bee diseases within and between honeybee colonies, how bee health is affected by different biotic and abiotic factors and how bees defend themselves against bee diseases.

Tree microbiomes
In this project, we study the ecological mechanisms contributing to the assembly of a tree’s microbiome. The project will reveal host traits correlated with pathogen susceptibility relevant for

Leaves as spore traps for improved forecasting methods
In this project we investigate if wheat leaves can be used to catch and analyse fungal spores. By increasing our knowledge on how diseases spread, we suggest better control strategies. Knowledge of
