Welcome to the Emerging Microbial Technologies conference 2025
It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 2nd edition of the Emerging Microbial Technologies conference, which will be hosted in Ghent (Belgium), a hub of innovation and research excellence.
Organized by three postdoctoral researchers from Ghent University in collaboration with the Young Belgian Society for Microbiology (YBSM), this event aims to provide an inspiring platform for exploring innovative microbial solutions to global challenges in health, industry, and the environment.
Our goal is to create a vibrant meeting point where researchers and professionals can exchange ideas, showcase their work, and inspire actionable solutions for real-world problems. We are committed to spotlighting early-career researchers, encouraging them to lead the way in shaping the future of microbial technologies.
Through our strong focus on fostering connections among early-career researchers, we aim to create a space where young scientists can share their work, exchange ideas, and build meaningful networks that drive collaboration and innovation.
Join us in Ghent for a dynamic program that combines scientific discovery, networking opportunities, and the celebration of emerging talent. Together, we can shape the future of microbial research and its transformative impact on society.
The conference organizers,
Ángel Estévez, Ludovica Marinelli and Josefien Van Landuyt
