Association for General and Applied Microbiology - VAAM Meeting Bremen 10-13 March, 2013

In the Association for General and Applied Microbiology are working over 3000 scientists in the field of microbiology which promotes the exchange of scientific information and co-operation of its members with a view to translating the results of microbiological research to the benefit of society and the environment. This is made possible through the annual conference in spring where all the sectors of microbiology are represented, as well as through special conferences on individual microbiological topics organized by study groups (Fachgruppen) focusing on specific subjects. See the calendar of future events for an overview of the activities.
The members' journal is BIOspectrum (in german) which is published seven times a year. Postgraduates are encouraged through awards honoring extraordinary PhD, travel subsidies and reduced fees at conferences. The Association for General and Applied Microbiology itself is a member of the umbrella organisationsREMS, IUMS and VBIO and is open for colleagues from other countries.
