iMeta Conference 2024: Building an innovative scientific research ecosystem for microbiome and One Health
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The iMeta Conference 2024, held from October 11 to 13, 2024, at the Nanshan District People's Hospital in Shenzhen, China, attracted over 400 leading scientists, researchers, and industry professionals from around the world (File S1).Organized by the editorial team of iMeta, a top-tier interdisciplinary journal in biotechnology, microbiome, and bioinformatics, this conference has been emerging as a premier platform for cutting-edge research in these fields.The iMeta journal, led by Chief Editors Prof. Shuangjiang Liu and Prof. Jingyuan Fu, has an impressive impact factor of 23.8, within the top 0.5% of journals worldwide (107 out of 21,848), and 11th in mainland China.Additionally, iMetaOmics, a subjournal co-edited by Prof. Fangqing Zhao and Prof. Jun Yu, is projected to have an impact factor of over 10, positioning it as a high-level interdisciplinary journal that welcomes submissions [1].Since its inception in 2022, the iMeta journal has launched a series of conferences aimed at advancing research, fostering international collaboration, and promoting the development of the field [2].Following successful events in Qingdao and Beijing [3], the 2024 edition marks the third event in this series that was co-organized by the Southern University of Science and Technology (Department of Biochemistry and Key University Laboratory of Metabolism and Health of Guangdong), Xianghu Laboratory, TreatGut, and HaploX.The conference covered a wide range of key topics (Figure 1), including Cutting-Edge Technologies, Gut Microbiota, Omics, Medicine, One Health, International Projects, and Journal Forum.These sessions highlighted the interdisciplinary nature of modern life sciences, with presentations covering microbial ecology, advancements in sequencing technologies, genome editing, and the broader implications of these innovations on human, animal, and environmental health.With the theme of "Building an Innovative Research Ecosystem," the iMeta Conference 2024 provided an interdisciplinary forum where participants could share breakthroughs, explore collaborative opportunities, and discuss the future of biotechnology, microbiome, and bioinformatics research.
