Norwich is home to some of the UK’s top research institutions, including The Quadram Institute, John Innes Centre, The Sainsbury Laboratory, Earlham Institute, Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals, and the University of East Anglia.
The Centre for Microbial Interactions is a new initiative to support and promote microbiology expertise from across Norwich Research Park.
This blog was written by representatives from the Centre of Microbial Interactions, as they offer insights to the new centre and its scientists.
Our microbiology research, covers a wide range of topics from antimicrobial resistance and biotechnology to infection biology and environmental science. The talent pool is diverse and multidisciplinary – enabling innovative solutions to global challenges.
The collaborative environment means that businesses can partner with leading scientists to innovate and develop new products or solutions. The Anglian Innovation Partnership plays a key role in fostering collaboration at Norwich Research Park, helping to build new communities and bridge the gap between businesses and scientific expertise.
The launch of the Centre for Microbial Interactions will solidify Norwich’s position as a global leader in microbiology and will aim to attract more research investment.
The Centre will also help to coordinate our impacts on government policy and promote the region to boost recruitment of staff and students.
Additionally, it will focus on training the next generation of scientists, ensuring that Norwich continues to drive high-quality research and innovation.
