EMBO|EMBL Symposium: New Approaches and Concepts in Microbiology
Germany - Heidelberg

Hosted by: EMBL
Venue: EMBL
Dates: Jun 27, 2017 through Jun 30, 2017

Description
 
Summary
This symposium will cover a broad range of topics in prokaryotic biology, including antibiotic-related research, network biology, bacterial communities, cell biology, regulation & signalling, pathogenesis and evolution. Emphasis will be placed on novel approaches that drive each field or have the potential to revolutionise future research in microbiology.

Aims
This meeting aims to bridge the gap between traditional microbiology and systems approaches/novel technologies, by exposing microbiologists to new ways of addressing their hypotheses, and allowing systems or technology experts to get a feeling of the burning questions in the field and find collaborators for follow-up work or for applying their technology.

It is a must-attend conference for scientists working with bacteria and new technologies, and is a continuation of the successful meetings in 2013 and 2015: www.embo-embl-symposia.org/symposia/2015/EES15-07.

The symposium is planned to take place on a regular, biennial basis in the future. The focus will remain on the interface of new technologies and new biology in bacteria, but the thematic areas will regularly change and speaker line-ups will have no overlap between two consecutive meetings.

Topics
Bacterial systems biology & new approaches
Single-cell approaches & cell biology
Antibiotic action resistance persistence
Microbial communities / microbiotas / symbiosis
Evolution
Pathogenesis & infection
Regulation, signalling & transcriptional networks

Event date
Tuesday 27 June 17 - Friday 30 June 17
