Invitation to submit abstract(s) to Applied Microbiology 2007

[Biomicroworld2007]

II International Conference on Environmental, Industrial and Applied Microbiology (BioMicroWorld2007), Seville (Spain), 28 November - 1 December 2007

http://www.formatex.org/biomicroworld2007

Abstracts deadline: 17 September / Early Registration deadline: 22 August

Dear colleague,

On behalf the organisers, you are cordially invited to send abstracts of your best research for presentation at the forthcoming II International Conference on Environmental, Industrial and Applied Microbiology (BioMicroWorld2007), to be held in Seville (Spain) from 28 November to 1 December 2007. All the information regarding this interdisciplinary conference can be found at the conference website: http://www.formatex.org/biomicroworld2007

Modern microbiology includes a broad variety of scholarly approaches leading to a better understanding of all living things at the macroscopic, microscopic/single-cell and nanoscopic/molecular level, producing beneficial applications in medicine, agriculture, industry, and ecology.

The Conference will specially welcome papers reporting interdisciplinary researchers, relating microbiology with other sciences as physics/chemistry, environmental sciences, materials science, polymer science, genetics, pharmacology, microscopy/imaging science, etc. In other words, we are specially (but not exclusively) interested in papers that relate the techniques and culture of microbiology to research areas usually associated with other scientific and engineering disciplines.

CONFERENCE PUBLICATIONS

Proceedings Book

A multi-volume book will be published including full papers of works (oral, posters and virtual posters) presented at the Conference. The book will be published by an international publisher in order to give it a broad international distribution and to serve as a good reference to consult the state of the art of the hottest topics in Modern Microbiology. The paper length will be 5 printed pages. Submission of full papers is optional.
Abstract Book
A separate Abstracts book will be published with abstracts of works presented at the Conference. It will be distributed among full rate participants at the beginning of the Conference, and dispatched to virtual participants after it.
International Journals special issues
Agreements are being negotiated with several international journals, in order to produce special issues based on very good papers presented at the Conference. Manuscripts must be delivered during the Conference, according to the instructions that we will give in due course for each journal. All papers will be strictly reviewed and treated as regular papers. Our goal is to produce high quality and high impact special issues based on some of the best conference papers. Papers submitted for a journal special issue and rejected (for scientific/editorial/space reasons), can be considered for inclusion in the Proceedings book. Please refer to the conference website for details.
If you would like to know more information about the Proceedings Book and the International Journals special issues published after the 1st edition of this conference, BioMicroWorld2005 held during 15-18 March 2005, click here
 
VIRTUAL PARTICIPATION

In addition to the "traditional" oral contributions and posters presentations, a Virtual Participation modality has been established for those researchers unable to attend the Conference personally. Please consult the conference website: http://www.formatex.org/biomicroworld2007/virtual/

COLLABORATION PROJECTS: SEARCH FOR PARTNERS

BioMicroWorld2007 will also serve as a platform for partners search for trans-national collaboration projects, like for example the EU Seventh Framework Program (Networks of Excellence, Integrated Projects and Specific Targeted Research or Innovation Project). All ideas/proposals for collaboration will be included in a booklet which will be distributed at the beginning of the Conference and/or posted at the conference website. If you are interested in taking part, please send us the corresponding form available at the website.

RESEARCH GROUPS

Send details of your group activities (research topics, members, projects, publications...). The booklet with all participating groups will be distributed at the Conference and/or posted at the conference website.

For any questions or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact us at biomicro2007@...
We would also appreciate if could disseminate this Call for Papers through your Department or Institution.
We hope to meet you at this large interdisciplinary international meeting!
