Bacterial processes are crucial to the environment, industry and technology of Australia. This work will open a new area of research to expand our understanding of how bacteria behave and function. This will lay the foundation for improved environmental management and resource utilisation in the critical areas of groundwater purification, coral infections, fisheries yields, petroleum remediation and bioenergy generation. This proposal will train over a dozen new scientists in these crucial areas and bring leading international scientists to Australia in the areas of bioenergy production, microfluidics, advanced microscopy and bioengineering.

细菌工艺对澳大利亚的环境、工业和技术至关重要。这项工作将开辟一个新的研究领域，以扩大我们对细菌行为和功能的理解。这将为改善地下水净化、珊瑚感染、渔业产量、石油补救和生物能源生产等关键领域的环境管理和资源利用奠定基础。该计划将在这些关键领域培训十几名新科学家，并将生物能源生产，微流体，先进显微镜和生物工程领域的领先国际科学家带到澳大利亚。
