Summary In mid‐ J une, the second Y oung M icrobiologists S ymposium took place under the broad title of ‘Microbe signalling, organization and pathogenesis’ on the picturesque campus of U niversity C ollege C ork, I reland. The symposium attracted 150 microbiologists from 15 different countries. The key feature of this meeting was that it was specifically aimed at providing a platform for junior scientists to present their work to a broad audience. The meeting was principally supported by S cience F oundation I reland with further backing from the S ociety for G eneral M icrobiology, the A merican S ociety for M icrobiology and the E uropean M olecular B iology O rganization. Sessions focused on microbial gene expression, biogenesis, pathogenicity and host interaction. In this M icro M eeting report, we highlight some of the most significant advances and exciting developments reported during various talks and poster presentations given by the young and talented microbiologists.
