The SurfSAFE Conference took place in Porto, Portugal from 27 to 29th September. Institutions from nine different countries were presented at our conference. 🌍 Thank you to all the participants and speakers. 👏 We hope you have enjoyed our Conference as much as we did! 😊

📣 Our Conference is finally approaching! 😊 Check out the Final Programme and the Book of Abstracts on our website!  👉 surfsafeproject.eu/final-conferen… Looking forward to meeting you all in Porto! ☀🌍 #SurfSAFE #biofilm #SurfSAFEconference #FEUP #LEPABE

This week our SurfSAFE researchers Ana Azevedo and Marta Lima presented their work at the IV Chemical & Biological Engineering Doctoral Symposium “Innovation in Chemical and Biological Engineering: Advancing Science and Industry"! 👏 Congrats! 🎉 #SurfSAFE #FEUP #LEBAPE #CBEDS

Today is the International Microorganism Day! 🎉 Microorganisms are a major problem in the food industry because they can cause several foodborne outbreaks. Under the scope of the SurfSAFE project, we focus on microorganisms that are able to develop biofilm communities.

📌 The preliminary program of the SurfSAFE Conference “Biofilm detection and control in the food industry” is now available on our website! 📅😉 surfsafeproject.eu/final-conferen… Looking forward to meeting you in Porto! ☀🌍😊 #SurfSAFE #biofilm #SurfSAFEconference #FEUP #LEPABE
