On behalf of the local organising committee and the Australian Society for Microbiology (ASM), we extend our heartfelt thanks to all speakers and attendees for their invaluable contributions to the success of the Australian Microbial Ecology Conference (AusME 2024). The three-day, single-stream conference, held in New South Wales, was dedicated to advancing microbial ecology in all its forms.

AusME 2024 showcased an exceptional scientific program featuring plenary speakers, invited speakers, proffered orals, and poster presentations. We were thrilled to provide opportunities for Students, Early/Mid-Career, and Established Researchers to present their work, enhancing the depth and diversity of our discussions.

Thank you once again for making AusME 2024 a success!

Local Organising Committee, AusME 2024
