The National Committee for Microbiology, in collaboration with the BCCM, is proud and happy to invite you to the first NaCoMi Tiny Titans Talk to be held on May 26, at the Palace of Academies, Brussels.
This is not just another scientific meeting. It’s a deep dive into the invisible world that made us who we are. The conference starts with an exceptional keynote by Renaud Piarroux — pediatrician, infectious‑disease specialist (notably cholera), biologist, and author of the acclaimed “Sapiens and Microbes” (CNRS Editions, 2025). The opening presentation will usher the audience into a fascinating journey into the ways microbial forces have shaped human evolution, ecosystems, and global health — followed by three compelling presentations that further reveal their profound impact on:
how microbes have driven major evolutionary transitions, how they shape our health and the health of animals today and how understanding them can change tomorrow’s medicine.
