LIST_MAPS International Symposium
26 April 2018 - 26 April 2018
Kinsale, Ireland
Contamination of foodstuff by pathogenic microorganisms is a major safety issue and a burden to the food industry. Many routes may lead to food contamination from farm to fork.
The symposium will address several facets of the ecology of foodborne pathogens. Titled ‘Foodborne pathogens: from farm to pharmacy!’ the event revolves around four sessions:
- Session I Biodiversity
- Session II Habitat colonisation
- Session III GI tract and infection
- Session IV Regulation
The EU-funded LIST_MAPS (Training and research in Listeria monocytogenes Adaptation through Proteomic and Transcriptome deep Sequencing Analysis) project is a network dedicated to the training of innovative young researchers in the field of Microbiology and Systems Biology. It focuses on Listeria monocytogenes, a ubiquitous pathogen that is the EU’s the leading cause of mortality and food recalls due to foodborne pathogens, costing the EU millions of euros per annum in medical care and associated costs in the food sector.
