I look forward to seeing you at the ASM Annual Scientific Meeting in the Gold Coast from 2-6 July. The scientific programme is very exciting and is headed by Rubbo Orator, Professor Ruth Hall and Fenner Lecturer, A/Prof. Rick Cavicchioli, and features a plenary lecture entitled Infections & cancer ? opportunities & challenges by Australian of the Year, Professor Ian Frazer. In addition, you can learn how to communicate with the media from the American Society for Microbiology?s Communications Director, Barbara Hyde. Escape the depths of winter and join us in July for some high quality science and a little sun; it is not too late to register

ASM aims to give our members maximum value for their membership. Some new initiatives for 2018 include an annual teacher’s travel award, valued at $4000, to attend the American Society for Microbiology Conference for Undergraduate Educators (AMSCUE), which is the world’s premier microbiology teachers’ conference. We also have instituted 100 travel awards, each valued at $200, to make it easier for members within 10 years of attaining their highest qualification to attend our Annual Scientific Meeting.

Our 50th anniversary national meeting in Perth has now been and gone. I think everyone agrees it was an outstanding success. Thanks to all those who helped make it happen, most notably Rod Bowman and the rest of the Perth LOC and Janette Sofronidis and the other national office staff. All of the international speakers had a great time and several expressed a desire to return to Australia soon. Several US speakers have key roles in the American Society for Microbiology (ASM) and we took the opportunity to discuss matters of mutual interest, including a number of possible future joint initiatives that would be of benefit to members of both Societies

Planning for the national meeting in Perth is now very much in full swing. As mentioned previously, we hope to make this meeting extra special as the Society will be turning 50 in 2009. We will have the usual impressive array of international speakers that will include Bonnie Bassler as the Rubbo Orator. In addition, the American Society for Microbiology has very generously agreed to sponsor an additional speaker to this meeting to help us celebrate our 50th anniversary. Following an approach from the Perth LOC, I am pleased to be able to announce that Rita Colwell has accepted an invitation to attend the conference and speak. As many of you know, Rita has a number of links to Australia and has attended past meetings.
