8^th European Congress on Applied Microbiology and Beneficial Microbes (CPD Accredited)

Environmental microbiology studies microorganisms and their interactions with each other, other organisms, and the environment. Microbes, some of the oldest living species on Earth, thrive in diverse habitats—from ocean depths to forests, including extreme environments. This field examines microbial roles in ecosystems, biogeochemical cycles, and their effects on human health and the environment. Environmental microbiologists also explore practical applications, such as bioremediation of oil spills, water purification, and the development of biologically active compounds for medicine and sustainable products. Recent discoveries include marine viruses that control harmful algal blooms and microbes engineered to produce safe, environmentally friendly sunscreens.
