In 2019 we started a new annual meeting, aimed at bringing together researchers from across the United Kingdom studying cellular microbiology and the cell biology of host‐pathogen interactions. In contrast to large glamourous meetings, featuring the great and the good from across the world, we wanted to create a forum for early career researchers to present their work and enjoy lively discussion. In particular, we hope that focussing on making the meeting accessible, affordable, and informal would help integrate and build the U.K. community working on this exciting topic.
