Salmonella is a human pathogen that causes various types of infections, ranging from mild gastroenteritis to life-threatening typhoid fever. For decades, research on Salmonella has attracted not just clinical microbiologists and epidemiologists but also geneticists and molecular biologists who use Salmonella as a model organism. Hence, meetings dealing with Salmonella can be truly interdisciplinary. Such was the case in the ESCMID-FEMS Conference held in Villars-sur-Ollon (Switzerland) in October 2010. The meeting fostered interactive views of Salmonella biology and prompted the discussion of strategies to prevent and combat Salmonella infections.
沙门氏菌是一种人类病原体，可引起各种类型的感染，从轻度肠胃炎到威胁生命的伤寒热不等。几十年来，对沙门氏菌的研究不仅吸引了临床微生物学家和流行病学家，也吸引了遗传学家和分子生物学家，他们将沙门氏菌用作模式生物。因此，涉及沙门氏菌的会议可以真正具有跨学科性。2010 年 10 月在瑞士 Villars-sur-Ollon 举行的 ESCMID-FEMS 会议就是如此。会议促进了对沙门氏菌生物学的互动式观点，并促使讨论了预防和对抗沙门氏菌感染的策略。
