What state is the Microbial Sciences Initiative run in?
Harvard Microbial Sciences Initiative The Microbial Sciences Initiative (MSI) is an interdisciplinary scientific organization at Harvard University that brings together and develops programs for faculty, students, postdoctoral fellows and others working across many Harvard Departments and other institutions in the greater Boston area - all working in one or more of the many fields of study that intersect with microbes and microbial activities. The mission of the MSI is to seek a "comprehensive understanding of the richest biological reservoir of the planet, the microbial world." More than 100 Harvard faculty associates are active members of the MSI community.
