In the new issue of the journal MIKROBIOLOG.SI, five award recipients and honorees of the Best Master’s Thesis 2024 reveal the findings of their master’s research. The issue also features young microbiologists who presented their work at the Young Microbiologists 2025 event, as well as four recipients of the society’s scholarships for participation in international conferences.

In addition to scientific articles, the issue includes three professional contributions and highlights from events that have shaped the microbiology community over the past six months. And because microbiology never operates in isolation, we also showcase the Mikrobum project, which brings together researchers from various disciplines to explore the subtle connections between humans and microbes.

Good read!

Dear microbiology supporters,

We are pleased to share the news that the Slovenian Microbiological Society has been entrusted with organizing the largest microbiology event in Europe. After almost a quarter of a century, FEMS MICRO 2027 is returning to Ljubljana.

We will keep you informed about all related activities. In the meantime, we invite you to subscribe to FEMS News to stay up to date with the latest events. We also encourage you to take advantage of FEMS scholarship opportunities and consider publishing your scientific work in their journals.

Kind regards,
