With the programme "Molecules to Ecosystems", Europe's leading life science research laboratory EMBL aims to link traditional molecular biology research to global agendas on climate, biodiversity and ecosystems. For the programme to be successful, it is necessary to get researchers from different professional disciplines to work together. The programme and its significance for Danish research will be presented at a symposium at Aarhus University in Denmark on 3-4 November 2022.

A British company has made their commercial facilities available to Danish plant molecular biologists so that they can make a large-scale study of elite rhizobial strains using state-of-the art equipment to evaluate the suitability of these strains as future inoculants for high-protein faba bean plants. The researchers aim to replace imported plant proteins with locally produced faba beans.

Danish researchers have developed a new and faster technology that might pave the way for non-invasive and very early diagnosis of a wide variety of human diseases, which will enable more successful treatments.
