Congratulations to all our Passport to Prizes 2022 winners!

At Annual Conference 2026 we want to create an environment which is as welcoming and inclusive as possible for all of our delegates. Find out more below about what this might mean for you.

We are delighted to announce the Hot Topic presentation at Annual Conference 2026 will be ‘What AI can and can’t do for antibiotic discovery’, given by Assistant Professor Jon Stokes on 16 April 2026 at the ICC, Belfast, UK. 

We are pleased to announce that our new membership area is now live.

At the Microbiology Society our members are at the heart of everything we do. We work to ensure your experience – be it registering for one of our events, applying for a grant with us, or simply renewing your membership – is as seamless as possible.

At the Microbiology Society, our members are at the heart of everything we do. We work to ensure your experience—be it booking one of our events, applying for a grant with us, or simply renewing your membership—is as seamless as possible. All of our members and event delegates will shortly be seeing some changes, primarily to the membership area of the website and to event registration.

The Microbiology Society was saddened to learn of the recent death of Professor Maurice O. Moss, a long term member of the Society, having first joined in 1961.
