The independent Junior MIMS Group Leaders are the centre of MIMS. The recruitment of young international scientists is following the EMBL model. The MIMS Group Leaders and their laboratories are evaluated after five years by external reviewers. After a positive evaluation the funding of the MIMS Group Leaders will prolongued for additional four years.

MIMS was established founded by faculty members within the Umeå Centre for Microbial Research (UCMR). The founding director professor Bernt Eric Uhlin and his colleagues and professors at the Faculty of Medicine and the Faculty of Science and Technology act as mentors for the young group leaders.
