Microbial Stress: from Molecules to Systems
The EFB (European Federation of Biotechnology) Section on Microbial Physiology is pleased to announce the second meeting in the series:
Microbial Stress: from Molecules to Systems
May 10-13, 2012 Belgirate (VB), Maggiore Lake, Italy
The meeting is focused on microbial stresses, covering experimental approaches from detailed molecular dissection of individual components to understanding stress responses at the whole cell and the whole population levels. It will bring together researchers, both academic and industrial, from all over the world, with a shared interest in all aspects of microbial stresses. This year, the themes will cover both intracellular and environmental stresses, the links between stress responses and energy metabolism, and the impacts of stress on microbial productivity. A must for all microbial physiologists, geneticists, cell biologists, biochemists, and systems biologists!
Announced speakers:
Theme One: Intracellular and environmental stresses: how cells cope with them
Daniela De Biase, Michael Hecker, Frank Madeo, John Morrissey, Aurelio Serrano
Theme Two: Cell stress and energy metabolism
Eva-Mari Aro, Timothy J. Donohue, Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Luigi Palmieri
Theme Three: Cell stress and bio-based microbial productions
Eckhard Boles, Pascale Daran-Lapujade, Ryan Gill, Jens Nielsen
