This project aims to develop advanced molecular and statistical techniques to precisely resolve the genomes of microbes in the environment. Microbes inhabit every niche on the planet and are fundamental to human and animal health, agriculture, and the environment. The proposed technology will advance our understanding of environmental microbes, leading to advances in areas like climate science and biosecurity where microbes play a key role. It will also support the development of billion dollar industries focused on the use of beneficial microbes in agriculture, plant, animal, and human health.

该项目旨在开发先进的分子和统计技术，以精确解析环境中微生物的基因组。微生物栖息在地球上的每一个生态位，是人类和动物健康、农业和环境的基础。拟议中的技术将促进我们对环境微生物的理解，从而在微生物发挥关键作用的气候科学和生物安全等领域取得进展。它还将支持数十亿美元产业的发展，重点是在农业、植物、动物和人类健康中使用有益微生物。
