Plant Biochemistry & Biotechnology Laboratory (PBBL) research group is part of a major research entity that is the Laboratory of Biotechnological Applications and Plant Protection (LBAP previously acronymed LBBA, see further info at https://hmu.gr/lbba/en). PBBL conducts cutting-edge research at the interface of plant, microbial, and agricultural sciences, with a strong emphasis on applied biochemistry, molecular biology, and biotechnology. Since its establishment in 1999, the group has been actively engaged in research addressing contemporary challenges in agriculture and the rural sector, aiming at solutions with clear pathways to industrial and societal application, while respecting environmental sustainability and consumer safety.
The group focuses on understanding and exploiting biological systems to mitigate production losses caused by diseases and abiotic stresses. PBBL members bring solid research experience and a strong commitment to translating fundamental knowledge into practical outcomes.
PBBL offers a dynamic and research-driven environment that equips undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as early-career researchers, with modern skills and international perspectives, supporting their professional development in Greece and abroad.

Current research interests that might correspond to Internship objectives and main tasks include:
• Metabolic engineering for the production of high-value secondary metabolites, through rational redesign and construction of metabolic pathways using genetic engineering approaches.
• Biosynthesis and gene regulation of selected secondary metabolites in plants and microorganisms.
• Genetic mapping and phylogenetic analysis using both classical methodologies and Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies.
• Genomics and bioinformatics, including the collection, classification, storage, and analysis of biological and biochemical data from plants and microorganisms.
• Biotechnological strategies for the development of bio-based fertilisers and plant protection products derived from renewable biological resources, such as plants. Bio-based fertilising products can include microorganisms, recycled nutrients and bio-based compounds that improve soil fertility and nutrient availability. Bio-based plant protection products can include microorganisms and natural substances (such as plant extracts, and other bio-based substances) that help manage plant health. Bio-based fertilisers can lower import dependence and the carbon footprint while turning agricultural residues and local organic waste into economic value.
• Focus on holistic approach strategies employing Artificial Intelligence Management and Entrepreneurial applications in Ensuring Optimal Quality of Olive Oil – From a living lab orchard to final premium quality product.

It is expected each visiting Erasmus+ intern/student, involved in the above mentioned cutting-edge research that will acquire Internship learning outcomes (knowledge, skills, transferable skills) at the interface of plant biology, microbial, and agricultural sciences, with a strong emphasis on applied biochemistry, molecular biology, and biotechnology.

It is quite obligatory the expected intern/student to posses a minimal science background in biology (preferably plants, or plant-related areas), while the higher education degree (BSc, MSc, PhD, Postdoc) and research experience level, the better for the faster incorporation to the group. Relative high level of English language is also expected. Scientific areas of higher education degree might include: Plant or Microbial Biology or Molecular Biology, Bioengineering, Genetic manipulation experience, Biochemistry, Molecular Biotechnology, Omics Applications, Chemistry of Natural Products, Instrumental Analysis, etc.

Crete relies heavily on manmade reservoirs for irrigation, water supply, and flood control. However, existing records are scattered and incomplete. The Global Dam Watch initiative collects and harmonizes dam information worldwide. This project aims to identify, verify, and document dams in Crete to contribute to that global dataset.

1. Use Google Earth (and optionally Sentinel-2 or other open datasets) to identify all manmade dams on Crete.
2. Digitize dam locations (coordinates, polygons if possible).
3. Collect metadata (name, height, reservoir area, capacity, construction year, usage, etc.) from available online/local sources.
4. Structure the dataset in a format compatible with Global Dam Watch.
5. Document the workflow so it can be replicated for other regions.

1. Hands-on experience in remote sensing and geospatial data creation.
2. Data harmonization and metadata standards (Global Dam Watch).
3. Contribution to an international open-science resource.

1. Interest in remote sensing, GIS, or water resources management.
2. Basic skills in Google Earth / QGIS.
3. Willingness to engage with online databases and possibly Greek-language sources.
