| Speakers | Prof. Leo Eberl, UZH Dr. Choong-Min Ryu, KRIBB, Korea Dr. Paolina Garbeva, Leiden, NIOO-KNAW Dr. Laurent Mène-Saffrané, UNIFR Prof. Laure Weisskopf, UNIFR Dre Floriane L'Haridon, UNIFR Dr. Laurent Mène-Saffrané |
| Description | Students will learn how microbes communicate with each other and with «higher» organisms. The first day, a mini-symposium will be organized, where internal and external scientists involved in the field will present their findings. Opportunity will be given for PhD students working in the field to present their data and obtain feed-back from leading experts in the field. The second day, students will learn how to collect and analyze volatile organic compounds, as one particular type of communication signals used by microbes. |
| Program | 5th of September morning: scientific lectures by invited speakers on bacterial communication via volatile and non-volatile compounds
5th of September afternoon: short presentation by participants and technical lectures on how to analyze volatile and non-volatile communication signals (Dr. Laurent Mène-Saffrané) 6th of September morning:Practical part on the analysis of volatile compounds (Dr. Floriane L'Haridon, Dr. Paolina Garbeva) |
