New Challenges

The start of the new year brings with it the promise of new challenges, new experiences and new friendships. This is true not only for our members personally but also for the Australian Society for Microbiology (ASM). Our challenge is to attract new members, to reach those with an interest in microbiology both academic and diagnostic, to meet the increasing needs of our existing members, to foster new relationships with other societies both national and international, to work with the Federation of Australian Scientific and Technological Societies (FASTS) to promote microbiology at the highest level and to provide our membership with an exciting and relevant annual scientific meeting.

New Ideas

Having just returned from the Adelaide Australian Society for Microbiology (ASM) Annual Scientific Meeting I am full of enthusiasm for the future of the ASM. This was a very well attended meeting, with a program that served the diversity of our society well. The theme, ?Fermenting New Ideas?, was extremely apt. New ideas were expounded by the invited international speakers, the national speakers, proffered paper presenters and by the delegates themselves. The meeting certainly conveyed the sense of fermentation in the best possible way. I have nothing but accolades for the local organising committee (LOC) and the National Scientific Advisory Committee. The LOC was obviously a very committed, enthusiastic, hardworking and fun loving group. These attributes really showed in the meeting itself. There was a certain buzz that can only be the result of the extraordinary effort made by the LOC.

In 1930 Gilbert Brown was prominent in the South Australian Branch of the British Medical Association and instrumental in the establishment of a Section of Anaesthetics. He was elected the first President of this scientifically and academically orientated section. He became the first President of the Australian Society of Anaesthetists from 1934–1939. He is commemorated by the Society in the Gilbert Brown Award for major contribution to a subject or event of the Society. The Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists awards the Gilbert Brown Prize to the contributor judged to have made the best contribution at each Annual Scientific Meeting.

I recently returned from Hobart, where I attended another hugely successful Annual Scientific Meeting of our Society. The conference attracted many outstanding international and Australian participants, who spoke on a wide range of topics. The overall theme of ‘Planetary Health’ worked well with a number of speakers alluding to this vitally important issue in their presentations.

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.
