Currently, IMBB participates in several international (two of which it coordinates, listed below) and national research projects.

 

Project PlantaSyst (grant No 664621 and No 739582 under FPA No. 664620)

Establishment of a Center of Plant Systems Biology and Biotechnology for the translation of fundamental research into sustainable bio-based technologies in Bulgaria

The project is funded by H2020, coordinated by IMBB (Dr. Tsanko Gechev) and with the participation of Maritsa Vegetable Crops Research Institute, Plovdiv, Bulgaria (Assoc. Prof. Dr. Dimitrina Kostova), Institute of Microbiology, Laboratory of Applied Biotechnology (Assoc. Prof. Dr. Milen Georgiev), University of Potsdam (Prof. Dr. Bernd Mueller-Roeber), and the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology Golm, Germany (Dr. Alisdair Fernie).
