Symposium Microfluencers - From small organisms to global impact

On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Institute for Microbiology and Biotechnology we would like to celebrate microbiological research with a scientific symposium. Interdisciplinary speakers from biology and physics will shed light on various important aspects of how microbial influencers shape our world. How can we address global problems such as climate change and antibiotic resistance or worldwide challenges such as global health and nutrition? The talks are tailored to an interdisciplinary audience and start at a lay scientific level and end with the latest results for experts.
Are you interested in microbial cell biology, host-microbe interactions and molecular mechanisms? Maybe you also wonder how biophysical approaches and new methods can support (micro)biological research questions? We invite everyone - from students to experienced researchers - to join us! Moreover, you are encouraged to actively participate and bring a poster with your own latest research results.
