Microbes-Stewards of a changing Planet
22-27 August 2010
Washington State Convention and Trade Centre
Dear Microbial Ecology Colleagues
Building on the success of ISME12 the 13th International Society for Microbial Ecology Conference will be in Seattle, USA from August 22 - 27, 2010. As is ISME tradition we have a vibrant scientific program planned with plenary presenters; Penny Chisholm, Jeffrey Gordon, Ian Sanders, Christa Schleper, and Warwick Vincent.
The venue, Washington State Convention & Trade Center, is at the centre of downtown Seattle, a city that inspires innovation. Seattle combines the best of the outdoors, surrounded by dramatically beautiful mountains and forests, with the best of city life. Known to many as the “Emerald City”, Seattle is renowned for being “green” and you notice the eco-friendly policies of the city at every corner. We invite you as an integral part of this stimulating symposium and we are looking forward to welcoming you to Seattle.
