NA-ISMET 2016 Conference
Abstract
The 2016 conference (NA-ISMET 2016) of the American branch of the International Society forMicrobial Electrochemistry and Technology (ISMET) will be held at Stanford University onOctober 5-7, 2016. This proposal seeks to obtain funds to cover the costs for young faculty,invited speakers, and graduate students to travel and attend the conference. These funds willensure that successful researchers attend the conference, increasing the quality of the researchpresented and the impact of this conference to the field of microbial electrochemistry, which theONR supports through multiple programs. The preliminary topics that will be covered at NA-ISMET 2016 will integrate both fundamental and applied research, and cover topics as outlined below:~ -Novel microbial pathways in microbial electrochemistry~ -Fundamentals of extracellular electron transfer~ -Synthetic biology approaches to optimize microbial electrochemical systems~ -Microbial ecology of mixed culture systems~ -Wastewater treatment and other bioremediation/bioenergy/biosensing applications~ -Materials: electrodes and membranes for METs~ -Design towards applications and scale-up~ -Modeling and optimization
