If you are interested in receiving more information please register your interest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Symposium overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This long-standing symposium will cover a broad range of topics in microbiology, featuring diverse research on bacterial physiology,\u00a0bacterial communities and microbiomes, bacterial\u2013host and \u2013phage interactions, and bacteria in their natural ecological contexts.\u00a0In the 8th edition of the successful biennial series, emphasis will be placed on novel approaches and technologies from systems-based to single-cell, that drive each field or have the potential to revolutionise future research in microbiology. It has become a must-attend event for scientists working with bacteria and new technologies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The aim is to bridge the gap between traditional microbiology and novel technologies, by exposing microbiologists to new ways of addressing their hypotheses, and emerge systems or technology experts to the important questions in the field. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What past participants say about the Symposium<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;<em>Quote<\/em>&#8221; &#8211; Name, affiliation, Country<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;Fantastic event with top-tier science, jaw-dropping talks, and a vibrant community.
