BOOSTSCIENCE at the International Black Sea Day 2026 Symposium!

On 30 October 2026, Dr. Oksana Zinchenko, from the Department of Microbiology, Virology and Biotechnology at Odesa I. I. Mechnikov National University, presented her research at the International Symposium Black Sea Day 2026, held in Odesa, Ukraine. Her presentation, “Biosynthetic Gene Cluster Diversity in Spore-Forming Bacteria Isolated from Deep-Sea Sediments of the Black Sea,” was co-authored with Dr. Alicia Lacoma from the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute (Spain).

Alongside the scientific findings, Dr. Zinchenko highlighted the Erasmus+ BOOSTSCIENCE project (No. 101237769), demonstrating how genomic datasets and bioinformatics approaches could be integrated into research-based educational case studies. This connection between scientific research and innovative teaching reflects BOOSTSCIENCE's mission to enhance natural sciences education in Ukraine and strengthen students' research, digital and innovation competencies.

The Symposium brought together researchers from eight countries: Ukraine, the United States, Georgia, Germany, France, Spain, Switzerland, and Nigeria. A total of 56 research contributions were included in the Symposium proceedings, while 31 oral presentations were delivered in English. The event provided an interdisciplinary platform for exchanging scientific knowledge and strengthening international academic cooperation.
