Article Title: Biofilms 2015: Multi-disciplinary approaches shed light into microbial life on surfaces
Abstract: The 7th ASM Conference on Biofilms was held in Chicago, Illinois, from October 24th to October 29th, 2015. The conference provided an international forum for biofilm researchers across academic and industry platforms, and from different scientific disciplines, to present and discuss new findings and ideas. The meeting covered a wide range of topics, spanning environmental sciences, applied biology, evolution, ecology, physiology and molecular biology of the biofilm lifestyle. This report summarizes the presentations with regard to emerging biofilm-related themes.
