Remember Our History of Excellence
The Canadian Society of Microbiologists has held annual conferences since 1952. Since then, our Society has grown by the hundreds and our research has advanced throughout the decades. The warm and friendly gatherings of microbiologists across Canada spurred collaborations and sharing of knowledge that have been so successful that we continue to create that atmosphere on a yearly basis. Explore our past conferences to see which university has hosted our meetings in the past, and what posters, papers and presentations were discussed at each meeting.
