Â鶹AV

Â鶹AV excels in exploring the role of microorganisms (including bacteria, archaea, fungi and viruses) in diverse ecosystems. Researchers here investigate microbial interactions, processes, and the diversity and ecology of microorganisms across marine, terrestrial, and freshwater environments. Their investigations also focus on the adaptive strategies and molecular mechanisms that enable microorganisms to survive and function in a broad range of environmental settings.

The university conducts research to better understand pathogens and antimicrobial resistance in the environment using innovative diagnostic techniques and monitoring. 

Bangor's microbiology research also focuses on biotechnological applications of microorganisms, including the development of novel bioproducts, biofuels, and bioremediation techniques.

 Utilising cutting-edge genomic tools, we research the genetic makeup of microorganisms, helping to unravel their potential applications and roles in various environments.
