Federation Of European Microbiological Societies

From Handwiki

Federation of European Microbiological Societies (FEMS) is an international European scientific organization, formed by the union of a number of national organizations; there are now 57 members from 41 European countries, regular and provisional.[1] Members can apply for fellowships, grants and/or support when organising a meeting. FEMS facilitates exchange of scientific knowledge to all microbiologists in Europe and worldwide by publishing seven microbiology journals and organising a biennial congress for microbiologists around the world. It also initiates campaigns such as the European Academy of Microbiology (EAM).[2]

Since 1977, it has been the sponsor of FEMS Microbiology Letters, a single journal. Now, FEMS publishes seven journals:

  • FEMS Microbiology Ecology
  • FEMS Microbiology Reviews
  • FEMS Microbiology Letters
  • FEMS Yeast Research
  • Pathogens and Disease a journal preceded by FEMS Immunology and Medical Microbiology
  • FEMS Microbes
  • FEMS microLife

Originally published for the Society by Elsevier, then by Wiley-Blackwell, they are now published by Oxford University Press.
