DESCRIPTION: After our successful Bacteriophage Applications - current and
  potential applications in biotechnology\, agriculture and medicine event 
 which took place 16th May 2006 and Bacteriophages: Nature and Exploitation
   event which took place in 22 February 2008 we are delighted to announce 
 our follow up event. \n"Bacteriophages are the most abundant biological en
 tities on earth and are major drivers of bacterial adaptive evolution. Stu
 dies on phage biology underpin our core knowledge of modern molecular biol
 ogy - and phage research has provided many of the techniques and biochemic
 al reagents used by all molecular biologists. This meeting is the third in
  a successful biennial series discussing the biological nature of bacterio
 phages\, and their exploitation in basic microbiology (for genetics and fu
 nctional genomics)\; diagnostics\, ecology and evolution\, phage display\,
  vaccines\, and in therapeutics in animal and human infections. The genera
 l structure of the meeting is to have short\, expert presentations on this
  spectrum of topics\, plus short Q&A sessions and offered posters.  The me
 eting will be of interest to anyone who is currently using phages in their
  research work or who might be interested in the potential application  of
  phages for basic biology\, and applied topics such as bacterial diagnosti
 cs\, vaccine development and phage therapy". Meeting chair - Professor Geo
 rge Salmond\, University of Cambridge\, UK\n\nThis event will have a panel
  discussion session and you can submit your questions online during regist
 ration.  \nThe meeting has CPD accreditation.\n\nBooking details: Book onl
