We are very pleased to invite you to the 13th Symposium SAME, this year called First EMBO Conference on Aquatic Microbial Ecology: SAME13 after the very welcome acknowledgment of the quality of the SAME series by the European Molecular Biology Organization. The meeting will be held in Stresa, on the shore of Lake Maggiore (Italy), from September 8th to 13th, 2013. This meeting will be organized in the tradition of the very successful SAME symposia, coupling the outstanding scientific level of lectures and communications to the unique convivial atmosphere of SAME. ...

The genus Fusarium comprises many plant-pathogenic species, causing diseases in most agriculturally important crops, and also can be harmful for humans and animals since many of species produce biologically active secondary metabolites (e.g., phytotoxins and mycotoxins) with an extraordinary chemical diversity. The economic importance of Fusarium species is high, due to both their impact on crop yields and the accumulation of mycotoxins in the colonized crops, which can make food commodities unacceptable for marketing or consumption. Research on Fusarium, carried out globally, concentrates the efforts of thousands of scientists and experts of different fields: mycology, plant pathology, genetics, agronomy, ecology, chemistry, biochemistry, and toxicology. There is a need to integrate different disciplines to provide solutions to the problems caused by Fusarium species that still, in spite of the enormous efforts of the scientific community, are far from solved. Effect of climatic changes on Fusarium and his host interactions, new active biological control agents, detection, genetic diversity in crops, development of new resistance to fungicides, changes in Fusarium populations, the need to reduce Fusarium mycotoxins in food and feed and ensure a plentiful, safe food supply: all are examples of challenges for those of us dealing with these complicated fungi. Scientists, breeders, industry representatives, and policy makers who are engaged in the issues related to Fusarium and the reduction of mycotoxin levels are invited to EFS13. This important Fusarium Seminar will provide a vital forum for European and International colleagues to appreciate the current state of the art in Fusarium research during oral presentation sessions led by prominent specialists in their field. The meeting will also provide an essential opportunity for discussion of solutions to today’s and tomorrow’s challenges. ... [Information of the supplier]
The EFB and the organisers of PYFF7 are delighted to invite you to Milan to attend the 7th Conference on Physiology of Yeast and Filamentous Fungi. PYFF7 will be hosted by the University of Milano-Bicocca (UNIMIB), located in the northeast of the city. The aim of the PYFF series is to bring together a strong interdisciplinary cohort of researchers, at all stages of their careers, who share an interest in applied and basic aspects of the physiology of yeasts and filamentous fungi. ...
