Details: | The 4th European Conference on Prokaryotic Genomics (ProkaGENOMICS 2009) will take place on 4th–7th October 2009 at the Georg-August University Göttingen, Germany. ProkaGENOMICS 2009 is the fourth event in a series of successful conferences initiated in 2003 by the three BMBF-funded German GenoMik networks, their centers located in Göttingen, Bielefeld and Würzburg. The conference addresses all basic and applied aspects of the rapidly evolving field of prokaryotic genome research. The major topics of ProkaGENOMICS 2009 are: • Prokaryotic Biotechgenomics • Prokaryotic Pathogenomics • Genomics of Plant-Associated Microorganisms • Biodiversity and Metagenomics • Synthetic Biology, Systems Biology and Bioinformatics • Reconstruction of Genomes and Reverse Genomics The significant shortage of resources and energy, an increasing need for food and a growing burden on the environment due to anthropogenic pollutants are global trends, which are having an ever greater influence on the world situation. Furthermore, human health is threatened by infectious diseases and new emerging pathogens with highly virulent properties. Research into and the use of micro-organisms offer largely unused opportunities to counter these global trends and to find and implement solutions. ProkaGENOMICS 2009 will be an excellent occasion to review the current stage of prokaryotic genome research in times of rapidly evolving high-throughput technologies, e.g. ultrafast sequencing and array technologies. You are cordially invited to attend the conference, listen to prominent scientists in this exciting field and to become an active part by presenting your work in short lectures or in poster sessions. We are looking forward to welcoming you in Göttingen and to share a successful and enjoyable meeting with you. |
