Two Special Issues out now!

Environmental Microbiology is pleased to announce that it currently has two special issues out now.

Special Issue: Environmental Ecology of Pathogens and Resistances
February 2013

Special Issue: Baeza
January 2013

This Special Issue of Environmental Microbiology is mostly shaped by papers submitted by participants of a recent workshop in Baeza – many of them former and current collaborators of Ken Timmis not only in the hope of mapping where the subject of Environmental Microbiology stands at the moment, but also to pay a tribute to the extraordinary leadership that Ken has exerted over the years in the same territory. Readers may take this collective issue as a piece of what in the best German academic tradition is called a Festschrift, i.e. a compilation of original papers by the honoured Academic's close colleagues which is published on the occasion of a notable career anniversary.
