The 97th Annual Meeting of the American Society for Microbiology.
The Annual Meeting of the American Society for Microbiology took place in Miami Beach, Florida, from May 4-8, 1997. Over 9000 scientists attended this meeting, which covers all major aspects of prokaryotic research (basic, applied, medical, and diagnostic). Genomics discussions were a major part of the meeting agenda, with scientists detailing both basic and applied research effort using genomics and bioinformatics. New ideas for potential novel antimicrobials have also surfaced as the tools to pursue Drug Discovery have fallen into place and pharmaceutical companies have ;rediscovered' anti-infectives.
