Organization

Building on the success of the 2016 Metaproteomics Symposium held in Magdeburg (Germany), the 2017 “International Metaproteomics Symposium: what can we learn about microbial communities and their functions?” will provide scientific updates and collegial discussions across a broad array of different scientific disciplines now focusing on microbial community systems and functions. A special emphasis will be put on what state-of-the-art research is telling us about metaproteomics methodologies and their applications.

Organized to include various plenary sessions, poster sessions and breakout workshops covering both disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives, the Symposium is expected to enable attendees to shape their future science priorities and strategies toward investigation of microbiota structures and functions.
