This workshop 29 February - 1 March seeks to unite researchers actively engaged in Bacillus research, as well as those entering the field with relevant expertise in associated domains. The primary objective is to facilitate the exchange of insights and ideas and foster fresh collaborations and synergistic efforts. In particular, the focus of the workshop will be on infection biology and the impact of Bacillus in the “real world” (e.g., in clinical, agricultural, and food industry settings). Finally, the workshop aims to highlight the biosecurity challenges of anthrax.
