Join our President and Microbial Genomics Editors in Cambridge this September The second President’s Roadshow of 2023, and the first to be held in person, takes place on Tuesday 12 September at Selwyn College, Cambridge, UK. The Microbiology Society Microbial Genomics Roadshow 2023 – Cambridge will provide an opportunity to meet our President, Professor Gurdyal S. Besra. Attendees will also have the chance to network with members of the Microbial Genomics Editorial Board as well as local microbiologists. During the Roadshow, the President will share insights into his successful career in microbiology and his journey as a Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) researcher. There will be a chance to hear about opportunities to get involved with the Society, including our Early Career Microbiologists’ Forum and grants scheme. Members of the Microbial Genomics Editorial Board will also be available to answer any questions you may have about the journal and Publishing for the Community. For the first time at a Roadshow, there will be a panel discussion about moving from academia to industry, particularly relevant for anyone interested in making a career move. The event could be the perfect opportunity to find your next collaborator!
