Microbiology Virtual Event Series 2015

Welcome to Labroots 1st Annual Event in the Microbiology Virtual Event Series! Microbiology is the study of microscopic organisms The event is now available on-demand and you can attend sessions including keynotes sessions by Dr. Phil Stewart, Dr. Jack A. Gilbert, and Dr. Lance R. Peterson. Although much is now known in the field of microbiology, some suggest that we have studied only one percent of all of the microbes in any given environment.

Attendees can earn free CME and CE Credits while watching an impressive group of presenters who will discuss a range of topics for this year's conference including:
          
• Global Regulatory Pressure on Product Preservation
• Biofilms
• Emerging Infections
• Microbiome


Our virtual conference allows you to participate in a global setting with no travel or cost to you. You can participate in exactly those parts which you are interested in and be back at your desk or bench in an instant. Virtual events remove time and place restrictions and ensure that everyone who wants to participate can do so. This virtual conference also offers increased reach for the global clinical community with a high degree of interaction through live-streaming video and chat sessions.
