The 1st International Workshop on Acinetobacter was held on 6th
September, 1986, in Manchester, England, in association with the
14th International Congress of Microbiology. That occasion was so
well attended and productive that there were soon discussions about
how, when and where the next meeting should be held. This time,
however, there was sufficient confidence to think of a more
substantial meeting and to plan for the proceedings to be
published. It emerged that there was wide agreement that the time
was ripe to take stock of the entire biology of Acinetobacter: its
occurrence and taxonomy; its molecular biology, biochemistry and
physiology; its clinical importance and its industrial and
commercial applications. The 2nd International Workshop on
Acinetobacter took place from 6th to 7th September, 1990, at the
Institut Pasteur, Paris, and was sponsored by the Federation of
European Microbiological Societies. There were about 100
participants from 19 countries. The backbone of the meeting
consisted of 23 plenary lectures. There were 28 posters and the
meeting closed with a general discussion which went on long after
the official finishing time despite all the counter-attractions of
a sunny Parisian Friday afternoon. Indeed discussions continued
while cruising along the Seine and while dining at the top of the
Tour Montparnasse. However, the vitality and usefulness of even the
most successful meeting is difficult to transmit by the printed
word.
