An American Academy of Microbiology colloquium in April of 2012 brought microbiologists together with experts from many other science and engineering communities to identify specific challenges and gaps in our understanding of the microbial ecosystems of water distribution systems. The colloquium's discussions and the participants' proposed research plan are presented in the report "Microbes in Pipes: The Microbiology of the Water Distribution System" which is available free on-line at http://bit.ly/TcboHV.
