Marine Cyanobacteria Symposium

[Loic Charpy]

MARINE CYANOBACTERIA and related organisms 
With the exiting developments in the field of marine cyanobacteria and 
related organisms 
 over recent years it has become clear that there is a pressing need to draw 
the diverse 
 interests together for a general symposium. 
 This international symposium will focus on the new techniques which have become 
 available over the past few years such as molecular phylogeny and cell 
sorting to bring  
experts in a diversity of fields together to address the important results 
but are just now 
 becoming available.
