The proceedings of the September 1996 symposium begin with introductory talks which discuss historical streptococci; including streptococcal research at Pasteur Institute from Louis Pasteur's time and present and future challenges. The remainder of the 249 papers cover topics such as streptococcal and enterococcal infections and their complications; new methodologies for epidemiology, taxonomy, and diagnosis; antibiotic resistance; cellular and extracellular components; oral streptococci; pathogenicity factors; animal models; vaccines; immune response and host defense; and regulation of gene expression.
