However, recent studies using bioreactor-cultivation techniques, under high pressure and\/or temperature, have resulted in successful enrichment of previously uncultivable archaeal and bacterial components that mediate biogeochemical carbon cycling in deep subsurface (1-7). In order to maintain and strengthen cultivation strategies in future deep life missions, the DLC will support early-carrier researchers to visit some key laboratories (Inagaki &#8211; Kochi, Japan, Bartlett &#8211; La Jolla, USA, and others) to learn and practice newly developed cultivation and cultivation-dependent molecular\/biogeochemical techniques using samples from the DLC\u2019s field missions.
