PEN Conferences

       

Programme of PEN International Conferences

PEN aims to co-ordinate E. coli based research outputs and maximise collaboration between different disciplines within and between Europe and other continents including INCO countries. To this end five international conferences will be held over the next three years (2007-2009), each dealing with a different aspect of pathogenic E. coli.
