The 5 th American Society for Microbiology Conference on Cell-Cell Communication in Bacteria (CCCB-5), which convened from October 18 - 21, 2014 in San Antonio, Texas, highlighted recent advances in our understanding of microbial intercellular signaling. While the CCCB meetings arose from interests in pheromone signaling and quorum sensing, it was evident at CCCB-5 that the cell-cell communication field is continuing to mature, expanding into new areas and integrating cutting-edge technologies. In this review, we recap some of the research discussed at CCCB-5 as well as the questions that have arisen from it.
