The Microbiome/Microbiota R&D and Business Collaboration Forum

Forum - London, United Kingdom

The flourishing sphere of metagenomics has allowed researchers to delve into the diversity of the body’s microbiota with findings that the microbiome is a home for diversity, natural immunity, metabolism, behavioural traits, and plays an instrumental role in health and disease. With large-scale collaborative projects underway and all sequencing data placed in the public domain, there is a rich source of information for researchers and companies looking for opportunities in this exciting field. With an increasing focus on healthy living and a therapeutics market that is expected to grow to $1.2 trillion by 2016, microbial research can be developed in order to provide preventative treatments, cures, therapies and supplements for a worldwide audience in demand.

The conference will include topics such as:

The Microbiome Community
Sequencing and Bioinformatics of the Human Microbiome
The Human Microbiome in Health and Disease
New Research in Microbiology Sites
Microbiome and the Food World
Venture Capital, Collaboration and Investment

Organization: Global Engage
