Dear Colleagues:
This is just a reminder that the Soil and Water Science Department at the University of Florida is offering a specialized 2-day training program on the Ecology of Bacterial Pathogens (Keeping out unhealthy levels of E. Coli and Salmonella).
The Ecology of Bacterial Pathogens Short Course will be held August 17 & 18, 2005 in Gainesville, Florida on the University of Florida campus.
REGISTRATION and INFORMATION
Click here to register for the short course and for detailed course information posted on the short course web site: http://soils.ifas.ufl.edu (Then just click on Department Short Courses)
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
1. You will learn about the basic biology, survival strategies and spread of E. coli and Salmonella.
2. Lectures and laboratory demonstrations will clarify different microbiological quality testing techniques, and upon completion of the course, you will be equipped to choose commercial testing methods and determine which best fit your specific needs.
3. Summaries of the research presented during the course will also help you rationalize management program details to monitor, control and eliminate E. coli and Salmonella outbreaks. Course discussions should inspire you to introduce new, more effective environmental, water or waste management programs.
Here are just a few occupations that will benefit by this training:
? Agricultural Engineers & Professional Developers
? City and County Government Officials
? Environmental Engineers, Regulators and Scientists
? First Responders & Veterinarians
? Organic Farmers
? Waste Managers and Engineers
? Water Quality Scientists & Professionals
