Mission Statement
Society for Applied
Microbiology
(The voice of Applied
Microbiology)
Applied Microbiology is pivotal to
solving the challenges we face in the health, food and environmental
sectors. SfAM
is the voice of Applied Microbiology.
SfAM
recognises that in the UK there are skill deficiencies in Applied
Microbiology. SfAM
will contribute to identifying these deficiencies and will work towards
implementing solutions.
Applied Microbiology is essential
to the maintenance of our quality of life, such as public health.
SfAM
will work with others to raise public understanding and appreciation
of the application of microbiology to everyday life.
Development and exploitation of Applied
Microbiology urgently requires the maintenance and improvement of
the microbiological resources in the UK, such as culture collections
and other specialised facilities. SfAM
will work with others to identify the needs and solutions to achieve
these goals for present and future generations of scientists.
