Metabolomik ist eine Schlüsselmethode in den modernen Lebenswissenschaften, um den Einfluss des Mikrobioms auf unsere Biologie zu ergründen. Sie ermöglicht es, chemische Signale zu entschlüsseln, die das Mikrobiom an die Umgebung sendet. Dabei werden molekulare Stoffwechselverbindungen in biologischen Systemen analytisch erfasst. Gemeinsam mit seinem Team arbeitet Manuel Liebeke am Aufbau einer Metabolomik-Plattform, die in der gesamten Kieler Uni genutzt werden kann.

Die Forschung im Labor wird ständig von Methodenentwicklungen wie der hochauflösenden Massenspektrometrie und Fluoreszenzmikroskopie vorangetrieben, um das räumliche Metabolom von mikrobiellen Systemen aufzudecken.
