Institute of Microbial Sciences and Technologies

The Institute of Microbial Sciences and Technologies (IMST) is dedicated to addressing the most complex challenges related to the diverse world of microorganisms. Operating from its primary address at Aškerčeva 59, 1230 Domžale, SI, IMST's researchers explore microbial life from the deepest seas to the highest mountains, studying their adaptation to an array of environments. The Institute of Microbial Sciences and Technologies leverages over a decade of global partnership experience, fostering an environment where researchers can express their individuality through innovative ideas and advanced methodologies.

IMST provides a supportive research environment, comprehensive education, and a wide network of globally recognized researchers. The Institute of Microbial Sciences and Technologies is committed to understanding horizontal gene transfer from the molecular level up to the community level. This is facilitated by the Institute’s methodological specialities, including metagenomic and microbial ecology research, studying microbial cells responses in artificial and natural biofilm environments, enhancing biotechnological processes through functional encapsulation of bacterial cells, and employing computational biology for process modelling and molecular structures.

With a focus on flexibility, agility in problem-solving, and rational resource utilization, the Institute of Microbial Sciences and Technologies is well-connected with industry and spin-off companies. We invite the manager of the Institute of Microbial Sciences and Technologies to create a customized and exclusive company showcase and product listing on our platform, to further enhance its visibility and collaboration opportunities.
