This meeting aims to bridge the gap between traditional microbiology and systems approaches/novel technologies, by exposing microbiologists to new ways of addressing their hypotheses, and allowing systems or technology experts to get a feeling of the burning questions in the field and find collaborators for follow-up work or for applying their technology. It is a must-attend conference for scientists working with bacteria and new technologies, and is a continuation of the successful meetings in 2013 and 2015: www.embo-embl-symposia.org/symposia/2015/EES15-07. The symposium is planned to take place on a regular, biennial basis in the future. The focus will remain on the interface of new technologies and new biology in bacteria, but the thematic areas will regularly change and speaker line-ups will have no overlap between two consecutive meetings. Topics Bacterial systems biology & new approaches Single-cell approaches & cell biology Antibiotic action resistance persistence Microbial communities / microbiotas / symbiosis Evolution Pathogenesis & infection Regulation, signalling & transcriptional networks
