History
Member of FEMS since 1992
Estonian Society for Microbiology (EMS) was established in 1992 as a successor of Estonian branch of Microbiological Society of the former Soviet Union. Since 1992, Ass. Prof. Tiina Alamäe and MSc Ene Talpsep have been chairing the Society. Currently, Prof. Jaak Truu holds this position.
All but one of the FEMS journals are now fully open access (OA), with one journal, FEMS Microbiology Letters remaining a subscription journal with free-to-publish and OA options. Open access is key to supporting the FEMS mission of disseminating high quality research as widely as possible: when high quality, peer reviewed sound science is open access, anyone, anywhere in the world with an internet connection, can read it.
