 Hi SIG Members,

This is just a short post to let you all know that we will be holding our AGM at the upcoming Melbourne ASM Conference on Wednesday, June 2nd from 3:30-4:00pm - see program link below.

As per SIG guidelines, we will be nominating and electing SIG convenor and state reps to serve on the SIG for the next two years. If anyone is interested in joining the SIG Committee and contributing to its development please contact Jeremy Barr (jeremy.barr@monash.edu) ahead of the meeting.

Otherwise, we hope we see many of you at the upcoming ASM conference!

New home for Bacteriophage SIG

  Hi everyone, I just wanted to make a quick post to update you all on a few new SIG goals and directions for '21 and '22. We will be transitioning away from our SIG blog site ( Bacteriophage Biology & Therapeutics SIG ) and moving onto the ASM communities platform ( Login - Australian Society for Microbiology ). I would like to encourage everyone to sign up for an account on ASM communities, to join the Bacteriophage community, and select receive notifications for any posts made. We will continue to post updates on our blog site in the meanwhile, but the long term plan is to transition our SIG communication to ASM communities and quarterly email updates. In other news, we are planning some PhD and ECR focused Bacteriophage SIG events for '22. We will have more news in the coming months, but if you could let any interested students and phage researchers know about this that would be greatly appreciated. Cheers,
