Viruses of Microbes 2022 (taking place in-person in Guimarães, Portugal this July!) registration and abstract submission are open!

The conference is targeted to a wide-ranging audience, interested in both the fundamental and applied aspects of virus exploitation, and is thus organized into the following topics:

• Ecology and evolution of microbial viruses
• Virus structures and function
• Virus-host interaction: overcoming cell barriers
• Virus-host interaction: molecular mechanisms
• Virus-host interaction: host defence and viral evasion mechanisms
• Agro-food, veterinary and environmental biotechnology applications
• Biotechnology applications in health care
• Current state and latest developments of phage therapy

This is the flagship conference of the ISVM — definitely not to be missed!
