The 1st International Virtual Conference on Environmental Monitoring and Applied Microbiology (VCEMAM 2026) is a focused, peer-driven event hosted by the Journal of Environmental Monitoring and Applied Microbiology to promote high-quality research at the intersection of microbiology and environmental sustainability.
Taking place on January 20, 2026, this one-day virtual conference brings together 20–25 researchers from around the world to present original work through 10-minute virtual poster presentations. Unlike traditional conferences, VCEMAM 2026 emphasizes full research papers—not abstracts—allowing for deeper scientific exchange and direct consideration for publication in a Special Issue of the journal.
Participants will present their research on topics such as water and wastewater microbiology, bioremediation, soil health, microbial ecology, biosensors, antibiotic resistance, and data-driven environmental monitoring. The intimate format fosters meaningful discussion, peer feedback, and interdisciplinary collaboration.
All accepted papers will undergo peer review for inclusion in the journal. There are no registration or submission fees, making this an accessible platform for researchers, especially early-career scientists and graduate students.
By linking the conference directly to the journal, VCEMAM 2026 supports the dissemination of impactful, open-access science and helps build a global community dedicated to microbial solutions for environmental challenges.
Join us to share your research, connect with peers, and contribute to the launch of a new scholarly platform in applied environmental microbiology.
