Registration and abstract submission are now open for the "Biotechnology for a circular bioeconomy" AFOB-EFB Virtual Conference (28-29 March 2023).

The scientific programme will include four sessions:

Carbon capture for energy, products and proteins
From waste and wastewater to valuable products
Biotechnology to mitigate climate change and global warming
Towards a circular bioeconomy: progress and bottlenecks

It is finally 2023 and this means that we are starting the countdown until
FEMS2023, on 9th -13th July!
Get ready to reconnect with scientists from all over the world, discuss with industry representatives, and meet esteemed microbiologists such as Kenneth Timmis, Julia Vorholt, Carmen Buchrieser, Paul Lehner, Jorge Galan, and many others. Curious about the symposia and offered talks sessions? Check out the programme here.

Every year, the field of synthetic biology advances bringing forth new applications and exciting potentials to explore.
Join us to discuss ideas and views on the latest research in synthetic biology and biomaterials during the 7th annual GASB conference, organized in partnership with Designer Biology.
The conference features a great ensemble of speakers including Silvia Vignolini, Roman Jerala, Birte Höcker and more to be announced.

Microbiology Society’s founding journal now fully Open Access
Sharing high-quality research for over 75 years, Microbiology is now fully Open Access (OA). By publishing OA with the not-for-profit Microbiology Society, you not only increase your opportunities for global impact and reach, but support us in providing activities, grants and events for international microbiologists. Submit now to:

Expand your reach: OA research can be read by anyone, anywhere in the world, with no restriction on reading, sharing, or reusing.

Increase your impact: Articles published OA in Society journals get on average twice the citations and 3.7 times the usage of paywalled content, based on data from Web of Science across all Society journals.

Support your community: Publishing with the Microbiology Society raises funds for grants, events and policy projects for microbiologists across the world.

Engineering Biology: The Next Generation (8 February 2023)
Engineering Biology is an important and fast developing technology.
This one-day event focuses on innovative SME’s showcasing how engineering biological systems is allowing them to pivot and navigate a new sustainable landscape.
Additionally, it will concentrate on how these SMEs develop their business, interact with larger corporations and interact with investors.

The 16th Asian Congress on Biotechnology will be held in the Biotechnology Centre of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, from the 15th to 19th of October, 2023.
Even although there has been some disturbance due to the Covid pandemic situation, ECB and ACB will be held in alternate years.

As experts in fluidtransferology, Beckman Coulter Life Sciences offers a broad range of flexible, scalable liquid handling solutions and reagents for NGS, genomic, cellular, protein and other workflows — including areas such as synthetic biology and more.
Use the Biomek i-Series to automate complex steps of the protocol. Transform and culture bacterial cells and prepare DNA samples for use with this liquid handler. Perform initial testing of your product, from transduction or analytical characterization, and scale therapeutic biological production downstream of this workflow.
The Echo 525 Acoustic Liquid Handler flexes across every step of a synthetic biology workflow while miniaturizing reactions and consuming less resources.
Our reagent portfolio is powered by Solid Phase Reversible Immobilization (SPRI) technology—widely known as the science behind AMPure XP—which uses SPRI paramagnetic beads to selectively bind nucleic acids by size.
