Thursday, 28 July, 2016

A new agricultural research centre will focus on technologies relevant to environment, agriculture and global food supplies.

A collaboration between the Australian National University (ANU) and the CSIRO, the ANU-CSIRO Centre for Genomics, Metabolomics and Bioinformatics (CGMB) will train researchers and stimulate projects in transformational agriculture that will help societies to adapt to climate change, population growth and land degradation.

The centre is receiving funding from the Science and Industry Endowment Fund and is part of the ANU-CSIRO science precinct known as the National Agriculture and Environmental Sciences Precinct.

The CGMB will be officially opened on Friday, 29 July 2016.
