The 13th International Conference on Microbial Genomes will continue the tradition of bringing investigators from biology, technology and computer sciences together to discuss the most recent advances in microbial genomics. This year's addition of the series will continue to incorporate frontier areas including new microbial communities, metagenomics and "synthetic biology" including the modeling and building of genetic circuits and metabolic pathways and conceivably the synthesis of completely artificial genomes. We will also emphasize a new focus, the field of structural proteomics. The combination of topics presented by leaders in the field, will offer attendees both the opportunity to build on existing genomic projects or initiate new research utilizing the latest technology. As with past meetings, we expect participants from a wide range of disciplines, including those from both academic and industrial institutions. In addition, this conference will provide fellowship awards to support graduate students in order to train the next generation of genomic experts. The conference will consist of seven sessions: (1) Host-microorganism interactions; (2) Community biology/metagenomics and pathogenesis; (3) Synthetic biology/syngenomics; (4) Computer modeling and systems biology; (5) Pathway engineering; (6) Structural genomics; and (7) New horizons. There will also be an afternoon poster session on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday offering the opportunity for all the participants to present their work. The conference will be held at the Lowell Center on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus from September 11 to 15, 2005. Frederick R. Blattner (UW-Madison), who has been an integral part of the Conference since its inception, will chair this year's meeting. The organizing committee consists of Jeffrey H. Miller (University of California at Los Angeles), Monica Riley (Marine Biological Laboratory), Elisabeth Raleigh (New England Biolabs, Inc.), George Weinstock (Baylor College of Medicine), Jizhong Zhou (Oak Ridge National Laboratory) and Tim Durfee (UW-Madison).

第13届微生物基因组国际会议将延续传统， 来自生物学，技术和计算机科学的研究人员聚集在一起，讨论微生物基因组学的最新进展。今年增加的系列将继续纳入前沿领域，包括新的微生物群落，宏基因组学和“合成生物学”，包括遗传电路和代谢途径的建模和构建，以及完全人工基因组的合成。我们还将强调一个新的重点，结构蛋白质组学领域。由该领域领导者提出的主题组合，将为与会者提供建立在现有基因组项目基础上的机会， 利用最新技术的新研究。与以往的会议一样，我们期待来自广泛学科的与会者，包括来自学术和工业机构的与会者。此外，本次会议将提供奖学金，以支持研究生，以培养下一代基因组专家。 会议将包括七个部分：（1）宿主-微生物相互作用;（2）社区生物学/宏基因组学和发病机理;（3）合成生物学/同基因组学;（4）计算机建模和系统生物学;（5）途径工程;（6）结构基因组学;和（7）新视野。星期一、星期二和星期三下午还将举行海报会议，让所有与会者有机会介绍他们的工作。 会议将于2005年9月11日至15日在威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的洛厄尔中心举行。弗雷德里克河布拉特纳（威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校），谁一直是会议的一个组成部分，自成立以来，将主持今年的会议。组委会由Jeffrey H.米勒（加州大学洛杉矶分校）、莫妮卡·莱利（海洋生物实验室）、伊丽莎白·罗利（新英格兰生物实验室公司）、乔治温斯托克（贝勒医学院），周继忠（橡树岭国家实验室）和蒂姆德菲（威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校）。
