Department of Plant and Microbial Biology

Teaching

IPMB conducts a remarkable diversity of plant and microbial research focusing on molecular mechanisms. By working on plant development, physiology, molecular biology, epigenetics, microbiology, plant-microbe interactions, microbiome science, agroecology, evolutionary adaptation, and soil and freshwater microbiology, IPMB combines diverse disciplines to provide fundamental insights that can contribute to sustainable agriculture and safe drinking water use, thereby bringing scientific innovation from the lab to society.

IPMB’s vision for teaching has two key aspects in mind: (1) meet the needs of students for interdisciplinary training, focusing on a mechanistic understanding of complex, multidimensional problems; and (2) address important societal issues, because many of our students take on positions at the interface of science and society, e.g., in cantonal or federal administrations, or as coordinators of science or policy programs. This is offered through extensive participation in several BSc programs (e.g. Biology, Biomedicine and Biodiversity) and MSc programs at the UZH but also ETHZ, as well as PhD programs (e.g. Plant Sciences and Science & Policy from the Zurich-Basel Plant Science Center).
