From microscopic germ cells to voluminous macroalgae :
deciphering underwater developmental mechanisms.
Because we believe in sharing our knowledge.
Because together we are smarter.
COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is a pan-European intergovernmental framework. Its mission is to enable break-through scientific and technological developments leading to new concepts and products and thereby contribute to strengthening Europe’s research and innovation capacities.
PHYCOMORPH is an international academic network comprising research teams dedicated to the identification of the biological events governing the development of macroalgae.
Each team offers expertise and specific technical skills especially suited to the study of macroalgal development.
Despite the fact that macroalgae were amongst the first multicellular eukaryotes to emerge on earth (1.2 billion years ago), almost nothing is known about the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in their development.
PHYCOMORPH contributes in filling the gap between past knowledge - mainly descriptive - and the increasing demand to answer functional issues.
