“One of the hottest new topics in biomedical research is “transkingdom” interactions between viruses and bacteria in the gut and how they influence health and disease.
Co-sponsored by ASM and the American Society for Virology (ASV), this all-new conference will bring together scientists from different disciplines to discuss cutting–edge research findings related to this hot topic. Sessions will include: understanding the cellular and organismal intestinal host response; the interplay between enteric viruses, pathogenic bacteria and the microbiota; novel approaches to model intestinal infections; and more.”
