چکیده

Op dinsdagochtend wordt de bijeenkomst geopend met de plenaire sessie getiteld: ‘Microbes under Stress Conditions’. Micro-organismen ondervinden net als mensen veel stress, zowel op de werkvloer als tijdens de uitoefening van hun hobby’s. De manier waarop micro-organismen hiermee omgaan is onderwerp van een uitdagende sessie, dus komt allen uitgerust naar Papendal! Vorig jaar zijn alle leden voor het eerst uitgenodigd een voorstel voor een thematische sessie in te dienen. Van deze mogelijkheid is uitgebreid gebruikgemaakt. De geselecteerde sessies zijn door de indieners enthousiast en professioneel ingevuld, hetgeen onder meer blijkt uit de vele positieve reacties die wij na afloop van de bijeenkomst ontvingen. Deze succesvolle formule herhalen we dit jaar en dit heeft wederom een bont, gevarieerd en veelbelovend programma opgeleverd. We hopen dat de geselecteerde sessies op een zelfde hoog niveau worden ingevuld als vorig jaar.
