IBERIMET, the national network of excellence that brings together the main Spanish groups in the field of Microbial Electrochemical Technologies (MET), held its first workshop at the University of Alcalá, Spain, early December. Abraham Esteve's Bioe-, coordinator of the project, was in charge of organizing the meeting.
More than 40 researchers from the University of León, University of Castilla-La Mancha, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Universitat de Girona, IRTA-GIRO, Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena and CSIC met to showcase their lines of research and the latest advances in the field with the aim of encouraging the exchange of experiences and collaboration. Attendees also participated in a practical seminar on microbialelectrochemistry.
