Virtual microbiome conferences in November

The World of Microbiome is a new platform dedicated to advancing scientific knowledge and practice in the emerging field of microbiome. The Nov. 4-6, 2020 series is designed to interpret recent research and analyze real-world case-studies. It provides a unique opportunity for scientists, clinical researchers, start-ups and established industry companies to form new collaborations and discuss the potential impact of the latest findings on patient care.

The 2020 event will aim to come up with regulatory guidelines for the use of probiotics in a joint debate. Another focus of the program is the host microbiome interactions in health and disease and the antibiotic crises.
