IV International Conference on Environmental, Industrial and Applied
Microbiology (BioMicroWorld2011), Torremolinos-Malaga (Spain), 14-16
September 2011

Deadline for abstract submission: 9 June 2011/ Deadline for early
registration: 28 June 2011

Dear colleague,

It is our pleasure to invite you to participate and submit abstracts to
the BioMicroWorld2011 Conference, which will be a multi-disciplinary forum
that will bring together active researches involved in environmental,
industrial and applied microbiology with the aim of communicating current
research priorities and progress in the field, and identifying new
approaches and research opportunities in applied microbiology.
BioMicroWorld2011 consolidates a series of conferences, whose last
edition, held in Lisbon (Portugal) in 2009, received about 1000 abstracts
to be considered for presentation and attracted more than 600 researchers
from nearly 60 countries.

CLOSEST KEY DATES
- 9 June 2011: Deadline for abstract submission (for oral presentations)
- 28 June 2011: Deadline for early registration
- 20 July: Deadline for abstract submission (for poster or virtual
presentations)


VIRTUAL PARTICIPATION
In addition to the oral and posters presentations, a Virtual Participation
mode has been established for those researchers who are unable to attend
the Conference personally. These participants will be requested to send
"virtual papers", which will be exhibited and discussed at the online
platform for virtual participation. These papers can be prepared using
Power Point, Flash or similar software, or video recordings. Please
consult the conference website for details.


PRE-REGISTRATION/EXPRESSION OF INTEREST
To keep you informed about all conference details, you may fill-in the
Pre-registration form, which is available at
http://www.formatex.org/biomicroworld2011/preregistration.php


PUBLICATIONS

- Abstract Book: A Book of Abstracts will be produced including all
abstracts of works presented at the Conference. Each registered
participant will receive a copy at the beginning of the Conference. (It
will be dispatched to virtual participants shortly after the conference).

- Proceedings: The conference proceedings will be published by World
Scientific Publishing Group. This is one of the world?s leading academic
publishers that will ensure an international distribution of the
BioMicroWorld2011 Proceedings.All details on full paper submission for the
book can be consulted in the ?Call for Papers? section on the conference
website. (Submission of a full paper is optional).


For any questions or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact us at
