The EU Framework 7 project RuminOmics is organising a satellite workshop, together with the Rumen Microbial Genomics Network and the analogous FP7 project on non-ruminant species, ECO-FCE, on the day preceding the main Rowett-INRA2014, Gut Microbiology: from Sequence to Function conference.
Applications are now being accepted to attend a summer school to learn of the relationship between the animal genome, gastrointestinal microbiomes and nutrition to improve digestion efficiency and the environmental impacts of ruminant livestock production.
Places on the course are limited to 25 students and there are funds available to support early career scientists from Central and Eastern Europe and the Mediterranean. Deadline for applications 5 May 2014
