Microbial Communities – The Science and Translational Perspectives
December 4, 2024
Join us for the upcoming workshop, Microbial Communities – The Science and Translational Perspectives, where we’ll explore the latest breakthroughs in building and studying these intricate ecosystems. Discover how understanding microbial communities can lead to real-world applications in areas like gut and skin health, plant growth, aquaculture, carbon capture, circular economy and even bioremediation.
Get involved in an exciting discussion through these main focus groups
- Agriculture-Soil and Plant health
- Aquaculture-Water and Fish health
- Circular economy, Bioremediation and Carbon capture
- Human health
