Microbiology

Molecular and Biology and Physiology covers the full spectrum of molecular and cellular mechanisms that underlie microbiological phenomena. The shared emphasis in the various sub-tracks is to achieve a detailed mechanistic understanding of microbial life at the cellular and molecular level.

Subtracks:

1. Structural Biology and Assembly of Complexes

2. Computational Genomics, Databases and Modeling

3. Biology of Eukaryotic Microbes

4. Gene Regulation and Microbial Stress Responses

5. Genome Dynamics, including Replication, Repair and Recombination

6. Development and Growth of Microbial Cells

7. Metabolism, Enzyme Mechanics and Physiology

8. Biofilms

9. Motility

10. Tools for Genetics and Genomics

11. Phage and Viruses

12. Protein Secretion and Microbial Cell Surfaces
