The theme of the 2025 International Conference on Microbiome Engineering is microbiome engineering across different environments. The conference will cover topics ranging from the human gut, skin, vagina, as well as animal systems, marine ecosystems, and soil. Over three days, we will have six sessions, each focusing on different approaches to microbiome engineering. Learn more at: https://www.aiche.org/sbe/conferences/microbiome-engineering/2025
