The first Women Microbiologist Network session was held at Annual Conference 2025 as a member-led event hosted by Dr Enas Newire (Middlesex University, UK). The inaugural session, titled ‘Women Microbiologists in Academia: Challenges and Opportunities’ was well attended and received positive feedback from participants.
In celebration of Volunteers Week 2021, we would like to honour the contributions that our volunteers have made to the work of the Society over the past year.
