The ICC Water & Health was presenting one oral and two poster contributions. There was a lot of positive feed-back concerning the development and application of our molecular detection and source tracking tools.

The contributions:
(1) Reischer  GH, Schuster N, Vierheilig J, Ley RE & Farnleitner AH (2013) The Co-Evolution of Host and Intestinal Microbiota? – Towards a Unified System for Molecular Faecal Indication and Source Tracking. (Oral presentation)
