Watch: Microbial Impacts – Wessex and South Coast Regional Meeting
The 2021 Microbial Impacts Regional Networking Meeting titled, ‘Microbial Impacts – Harnessing regional and interdisciplinary strengths,’ took place on Friday 3 December in Southampton and aimed to:
- Connect and accelerate new collaborations across the life sciences, physical sciences, medicine and engineering disciplines in order to set new directions and technology development relevant to microbes and microbial communities;
- Catalyse discussion, exchange of ideas, and new collaborations addressing global challenges relevant to the field;
- Build on research and innovation strengths in the Wessex and South Coast region.
In our ‘Rapid Fire’ pitches sessions a number of delegates gave 2 minute presentations on the subject of “Who am I, Why am I here?” (What can I offer, and what would I like). The meeting also featured presentations from key organisations and research infrastructure regionally.
