An invitation to attend and present at the upcoming “Microbiomes in Tasmania” workshop and mini-conference
by Michael Charleston 22 Aug '18

22 Aug '18

First announcement: Microbiomes in Tasmania workshop: questions, collaboration and connection with industry Dates: Monday-Wednesday 29th-31st October Schedule: Mon-Tues is a mini-conference, Wed is a paper writing workshop, both days are approx. 9am-5pm Venue: TBC Cost: Free In Tasmania, microbial community analyses are being conducted through different organizations (e.g. UTas, CSIRO, AAD, TIA, private industry) and for different objectives, including understanding human, soil and agricultural health, food safety, biodiversity, evolution and biogeochemistry. However, to date there has been very little formal collaboration amongst these groups to facilitate discussion of research questions, techniques, and facilities to streamline research efforts and stimulate cross-disciplinary research, grants and publications. To initiate collaboration amongst these groups, we are holding a three-day event (Mon 29 Oct – Wed 31 Oct); two days of presentations on health and ecological microbiome research and applications, with a third day to outline a working paper for publication. We are inviting presentations from each major “microbiome” research group in Tasmania, as well as leading microbiome researchers from elsewhere in Australia. We have identified you as one of the prominent “microbiome” researchers in Tasmania and it would be fantastic if you could attend. The outcomes of the workshop will be to build a network and shared understanding of the microbiomes research being done in Tasmania. Fostering this collaboration could lead to more rapid advances and efficient research. Please let us know by Friday, Aug 31 if 1) whether you (or your students) are interested in attending the mini-conference on Oct 29 or 30 2) whether you (or your students) are interested in presenting at the mini-conference on Oct 29 or 30 (and the general topic of presentation), and 3) whether you (or your students) are interested in being involved with writing up a paper on this subject (must attend workshop on Oct 31). Feel free to forward this announcement to others, who we may have missed. This free event has been sponsored by the College of Science and Engineering and will be catered with lunch and morning and afternoon tea.
