During these sunny days we also sent scientific emissaries in various meetings. Vincent went with me at the 11th International PGPR workshop in Victoria, BC, where he presented a poster on Bacillus subtilis sporulation on plant roots. He got many positive feedbacks, which is encouraging us in writing up the story into an article. Frédéric went to the Plasmid Biology 2018 meeting at Seattle, where he presented his results that were recently accepted for publication – to be continued! Finally, Julie assisted to the 13th European Nitrogen Fixation Conference, in Stockholm, where she presented an outline of the PhD project. Thus, many interesting meetings and discussions happened on our science, which motivated everybody.
There were a lot of movements this summer in the laboratory. First, I want to congratulate Jessica, who successfully completed her master degree!! Also, Assena went back to Belgium after doing a very interesting internship in collaboration with Plant Select, a horticole company. This fall we are welcoming David, who will do a master degree project on the involvement of bacterial biofilms in Alzheimer disease. Alexandre also recently joined us from France to do an internship on ICEBs1. During these sunny days we also sent scientific emissaries in various meetings.

To conclude this blog post, a little visibility for an important event happening in Sherbrooke: the 69th Annual Conference of the Canadian Society of Microbiologists will be held on our campus (Université de Sherbrooke) from june 10th to june 13th. Sessions themes are very diverse, and will cover subjects in environmental and applied microbiology, global health and microorganisms and system biology. For more details, check out the poster below.
