IUMS - 18th Congress of the International Union of Microbiological Societies 2024

IUMS - 18th Congress of the International Union of Microbiological Societies 2024 I’m now convinced that the meeting in Florence will be an historical milestone in the field of microbiology, where we are going to learn the importance of microbiology in every single aspect of life”. Dr. Rino Rappuoli Dear Friends, Dear Colleagues, The 18th Congress of the International Union of Microbiological Societies (IUMS) will be held in Florence (Italy) on October 23-25, 2024. The meeting, which will take place in one of the most beautiful cities of the world, will be a unique opportunity to bring together scientists working on Bacteriology, Virology, and Mycology worldwide, to share and discuss the most recent advances and future perspectives in microbiology. The topics that will be discussed include microbial genetics, molecular biology, gene regulation, proteomics, and the applied aspects of microbiology, including biotechnology, clinical, medical, industrial, and environmental applications. In addition, the 2024 IUMS meeting will be an opportunity to increase awareness of the importance of microbes for the society and for the planet by discussing how we can actively work together to promote sustainable solutions to preserve microbial diversity and maximize global well-being. Special attention will be provided to facilitate the participation of young people. We hope you will be able to join us for what will be an exceptional meeting! UMS 2024 will bring together medical and non-medical microbiologists from different disciplines around a theme that concerns us all worldwide, namely “Microorganisms for sustainable solutions: environmental & clinical implementations”. Ai ragazzi dall’Universita Milano Bicocca (Alessandra, Meriam, Riccardo) ai quali ho chiesto un feeback cosi rispondono entusiasti Il nostro feedback riguardo al convegno IUMS è il seguente Presentazioni molto interessanti che hanno spaziato dal cambiamento climatico, al micobioma/microbiota, aspetti di virologia, patogeni e infezioni Ci piacerebbe sentire nelle prossime edizioni anche degli interventi riguardo il biorisanamento e/o più interventi di microbiologia ambientale. In ogni caso presentazioni di alto livello, e bellissima la possibilità di confrontarsi con tutti gli esperti del settore provenienti da diverse parti del mondo
