International Microorganism Day 2024
We invite interested individuals and organizations to organize their own International Microorganism Day event in their country on or around the 17 September 2024! International Microorganism Day is a global celebration of microorganisms and their contributions to life on Earth. By organizing an event, you can help raise awareness of the importance of microorganisms and their impact on human health, agriculture, the environment, and more.

-
Public lectures or seminars on microbiology-related topics

Microbe-themed art or music events

Exhibitions of microorganisms or related technology
