Applied Microbiology International

Who we are

We are the oldest microbiology society in the UK and with more than half of our membership outside the UK, we are truly global, serving microbiologists based in universities, private industry and research institutes around the world.

As a professional membership organisation we support those studying and working in the field of applied microbiology, from undergraduate and PHD students, to those entering the field of work and seasoned professionals in academia or industry, flourishing at the height of their careers. We’re also privileged to have members recognised internationally for their work in applied microbiology, acting as our global ambassadors.

We fundamentally believe that global challenges need to be solved by global, interdisciplinary experts who apply their diverse experience and unique  voices to achieve a common goal. Because of this, we’re a truly inclusive,  international organisation.
