Bacillus-ACT 2011 - International Conference on Bacillus anthracis, Bacillus cereus, and Bacillus thuringiensis

We cordially invite you to the International Conference on Bacillus anthracis, Bacillus cereus, and Bacillus thuringiensis known as the “The Bacillus ACT Meeting” to be held in summer 2011 in Bruges, Belgium. This conference represents the fourth fusion of two conferences: the 9th International Conference on Anthrax and the 7th International Workshop on the Molecular Biology of Bacillus cereus. The main mission of the Bacillus-ACT 2011 Meeting is to promote stimulating and fruitful interactions between investigators involved in research related to the physiology, genetics, molecular biology, pathogenesis and ecology of these three closely related bacteria and their kin.

Located at Europe's centre, Belgium, and specially the historic city of Bruges, provides an ideal venue, combining a medieval environment with the opportunity to appreciate the beauty of its architecture, the charm of its channels and the pride of its old buildings, being therefore an ideal destination for the lovers of art and beauty.
