We are pleased to announce that we now offer online access to high quality webcasts from the Water Research Conference.
Not sure what to expect? Experience the high quality webcasts and access Marc Strous’ presentation free of charge (no registration required).
From April 28th 2010 onwards, you can permanently access and share high-quality audio presentations from leading experts in Water Research, discussing the two major topics:
Microbiology is one of the major scientific disciplines contributing to the field of water research. This conference provides a platform for exchange and interaction between microbiological research and its application; the provision of clean water to society.
