The BSMT Annual Microbiology Conference: a highlight of the microbiology calendar

The 41st Annual Microbiology Conference of the British Society for Microbial Technology takes place on Thursday 21 May 2026 at the Royal Air Force Museum, Hendon.

An impressive line-up of speakers will be exploring ‘The Good, the Bad and the Bugly’, covering topics that range from the changing distribution of mosquito vector species in the UK and domestically acquired cholera, to phage therapy and the future of diagnostic microbiology. There is truly something for every attendee, whatever their area of practice. Registered with The Royal College of Pathologists for CPD, the conference is a genuine opportunity to invest in professional development, with CPD certificates available to all delegates.

If you have not yet registered, a small number of places remain available, and it is well worth contacting the Society directly via www.bsmt.org.uk to express your interest.

The BSMT exists to support senior biomedical and clinical scientists, other medical microbiologists, and academics throughout the year.
