Power of Viruses
Date: May 16-18, 2018
Venue: Poreč, Croatia
It is with great pleasure that we invite you to attend the conference Power of Viruses in Valamar Diamant Hotel, Poreč, Croatia, during May 16-18, 2018.
The symposium is a result of our continuous efforts in promoting virology through a series of events:
- Adenoviruses – Basic Biology to Gene Therapy, 2008
- Power of Viral Vectors in Gene Therapy and Basic Science, 2014, and
- Croatian Virology Workshop (CroViWo), 2014.
Encouraged with their success, we are organizing the international conference Power of Viruses for the first time with the aim of stimulating further development of virology in Europe, especially in the south-eastern Europe, and to facilitate international networking of virologists from medical, plant, veterinary and other sub-fields.
The chosen venue in Poreč at the Adriatic coast with its rich history, scenic beauty and accessibility provides a perfect setting for scientific discussions and informal networking.
The conference is co-organized by the Slovenian Microbiological Society and Czechoslovakian Microbiological Society.
Scientific programme will be prepared by international scientific committee of virologists from various fields.
The meeting is linked with the working groups meetings of the COST Action FA1407 dealing with deep investigation of virus associated sequences (Cost DIVAS). However, the participation in COST DIVAS is not required for the participation in the conference.
Wishing to attract as many young researchers as possible, the Organising Committee has provided lower registration fees for students and special accommodation rates for participants of the meeting. FEMS grants for the participation to the meeting are available for young researchers, and we are actively seeking more opportunities from other international organizations (ICGEB Grant).
All the necessary details can be found at different sections of this web-site and it will be regularly updated with news.
We are looking forward to seeing you in Poreč!

Probiotics are mostly useless and can actually hurt you
Probiotics are living micro-organisms that are taken by millions of people to boost their microbiome or to restore their gut ecosystem after a dose of antibiotics. Yet questions remain about whether they actually work.
The urinary microbiome associated with bladder cancer
An international group of scientists led by dr. Terzić, including Croatian microbiological society member dr. Viljemka Bučević Popović as a first author, have recently published a paper on the association of urinary microbiome and bladder cancer.Izdavaštvo
Moćni mikrobi – prikaz knjige Mighty Microbes – The Amazing World of Microorganisms
Skupina znanstvenika i popularizatora znanosti iz Nizozemske se s ovom idejom pozabavila kroz fundaciju Microcanoni, nizozemsku inačicu projekta naziva „Što doista trebate znati o mikrobiologiji“ još 2011. Ta verzija prezentirana je i u amsterdamskom muzeju Artis Micropia, a djelo na engleskome čiji vam prikaz donosim je korak dalje koji je ova skupina ljudi poduzela u ulozi urednika knjige s naslovom Mighty Microbes i podnsalovom The Amazing World of Microorganisms. Osmislili su građu podijeljenu u devet tematskih cjelina, a unutar svake je pet do deset poglavlja (tema) za koje su kao autore ili suautore odabrali znanstvenike koji su sudjelovali u ključnim otkrićima ili su istaknuti stručnjaci u tom području.
Priručnik za vježbe iz opće mikrobiologije
Ovaj sveučilišni priručnik napisalo je petnaestak autora iz desetak visokoškolskih ustanova iz Zagreba i Rijeke, a sadržaj je podijeljen u petnaest, slikama bogato ilustriranih poglavlja u kojima su opisane i obrađene različite bakteriološke, virološke, mikološke, imunološke i molekularno-biološke metode koje se upotrebljavaju u općoj mikrobiologiji koja se studira na nizu različitih fakulteta i visokih škola.
