Welcome to the 24th European Nitrogen Cycle Meeting, which will be held in Lisbon (Portugal) for the first time, from 11 to 13 September 2019. This is a European meeting that brings together researchers with complementary expertise in microbiology, physiology
ecology, genetics, biochemistry, structural biology, biotechnology and engineers, with a shared interest in the nitrogen cycle. This is a short meeting, of two and half intense days, that cover the different aspects of the pathways
that comprise the nitrogen cycle, with focus on new metabolic pathways, implications in health, biotechnology and climate change, without forgetting the basic science that lies behind.
On behalf of the organizing
committee, we want to personally invite you to participate in this special meeting that gives the opportunity to young researcher to present their work and discuss their results with renowned researchers either as selected oral presentations
or as posters. Besides an interesting scientific program, the social activities, lunch breaks and coffee-breaks will stimulate the establishment of new collaborations as well as the discussions between colleagues and friends.
We are looking forward to meeting you and hope this will be a fruitful and pleasant scientific meeting.
