Host Madeleine Ramstedt
Information from Madeleine:
Madeleine Ramstedt has two guests here in Umeå next week that are from Lisbon in Portugal and that do research on how to prevent biofilm formation on medical devices using different approaches. I know them from a European network (www.ipromedai.net) working to find strategies for preventing infection of medical devices (including dental ones). They are here to see how we do our biofilm experiments in flow chambers.
Here are links to their web pages:

They will give a ~20 min presentation each on Friday 15th April starting at 13 in the afternoon and we will have some time also for questions and discussions. I expect the whole thing will take about an hour. We will be in the seminar room at Clinical microbiology. The titles for the talks will be:
"Antibiotic delivery platforms for targeting bone infections" (Ana F. Bettencourt)
"Sophorolipids: The Yeast Synthesised Glycolipids with Diverse Biological Activities" (Isabel A.C. Ribeiro)
I hope you would like to join us and listen to these guests.
If you have a colleague that you think may be interested please also forward this e-mail to them.
Everyone is very welcome to join the talks.
