Marine Ecosystem Research

Logo Bremen Marine Ecology

Marine Science is the most import high-profile research area within the research community in Bremen, particulary strong and most visible in international research. The Centre for Marine Environmental Sciences (MARUM), the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research in the Helmholtz Association (AWI), the Max Planck Insitute for Marine Microbiology (MPI) as well as the Leibniz Centre for Tropical Research (ZMT) are scientific partners in Marine Science. Furthermore, Bremen is an internationally important high-tec site for private marine or maritime activities. The research sector of Marine Science provides more than 1.500 jobs in Bremen.

SynBio

Logo Synthetische Biologie am FB2 der Uni Bremen

Synthetic biology is a highly interdisciplinary new branch of research which straddles the interfaces between molecular biology, chemistry, engineering, and materials sciences. Primarily oriented to engineering, synthetic biology is concerned with adapting, reprogramming or creating new combinations of known biological entities and making them useful for defined purposes in living systems.
