Dear participants of the Annual Conference 2015 of the Association for General and Applied Microbiology, I am pleased to meet you again a decade after the last Annual Conference took place here in Jena. And I am also pleased to welcome you again to our city! A city which not only inspired numerous philosophers, writers and entrepreneurs but which also became a home for many microbiologists. In recent decades, Jena with its university and other scientific institutions has evolved as a major player in microbial research. This success has been made possible especially by the cooperative working atmosphere extending across the disciplinary and institutional boundaries. Microbiologists, physicians, chemists, bioinformaticians, physicists, photonic scientists and other professionals coming together to work on a common problem are one example. Significant collaborative projects involving this year’s organizers – the University of Jena and the Leibniz Institute for Natural Product Research and Infection Biology – Hans Knöll Institute (HKI) – give testimony to this seminal cooperation: As an umbrella organization the Excellence Graduate School Jena School for Microbial Communication combines many scientific activities in the field of microbial communication and links them to an ambitious microbiological training. And at the Leibniz ScienceCampus InfectoOptics, for example, chemists, physicists and microbiologists are working together to develop new optical technologies for the detection and treatment of infections. The research campus InfectoGnostics also unites microbiologists with photonic scientists to develop novel ways to diagnose infections. The Collaborative Research Centre / Transregio “FungiNet” furthermore brings together microbiologists, physicians and bioinformaticians from Jena with their fellows from Würzburg. The scientists explore the complex mechanisms of fungal infections and generate new therapeutic options through a systems biology approach. In this regard, I also want to mention the consortium “InfectControl 2020” where scientists and entrepreneurs from all over Germany work together on new strategies for infection control and prevention. Within the Collaborative Research Centre “ChemBioSys” we examine how the composition of species and the interrelations of individual organisms of one or more species are regulated by natural products.Here in Jena, you will find a lively and - particularly important - collegial and friendly environment! I wish you an insightful Annual Conference 2016 with many good discussions and conversations! ... [Information of the supplier]
Aspergillus flavus is a plant, animal, and human pathogen that produces the carcinogen, aflatoxin. An organized multidisciplinary team is coordinating research efforts to control this fungus and to prevent the formation of its toxin in food and feeds. [Information of the supplier]
The degradation of xenobiotic and other toxic compounds by microorganisms is central to strategies for the bioremediation of contaminated environments. The Center for Microbial Ecology at Michigan State University and Rutgers University initiated a study to establish the phylogenetic distribution of described, biodegrading microorganisms with the goals of identifying patterns of microbial degradative processes within a phylogenetic context and of gaining insights into the evolution of those processes. This continuing investigation has been hindered by strain data that is difficult to comprehensively compile and often uncomparable between strains and has underscored the potential usefulness of a database that would consolidate strain-level microbial data. To address this need and provide a resource for the scientific community, we have developed the Biodegradative Strain Database (BSD). The BSD is being developed at the Center for Microbial Ecology in collaboration with the University of Minnesota Biocatalysis/Biodegradation Database and the Ribosomal Database Project II . It should consolidate and provide rapid access to comparative data on known biodegradative microorganisms and the hazardous substances they degrade as a readily accessible resource for researchers and field practitioners. One of its other goals is to facilitate comparative analyses and highlight deficiencies in our current knowledge base. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]

The Digital Learning Center for Microbial Ecology (DLC-ME) is a science education project developed at Michigan State University. The DLC-ME was created by the Comm Tech Lab in collaboration with the Center for Microbial Ecology and the College of Education at Michigan State. The creation of the DLC-ME was partially sponsored by the National Science Foundation. The goal of the DLC-ME is to use computers and network technologies to provide students and teachers interested in microbiology and microbial ecology with resources that may aid their learning and teaching. ...
