Why do mosquitoes bite some people more than others? It comes down to smell.

Dr James Logan from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine gave us a demo at New Scientist Live, and told us about his research trying to harness human odours to create new mosquito repellents.

The Microbiology Society is a membership charity for scientists interested in microbes, their effects and their practical uses. It is one of the largest microbiology societies in Europe with a worldwide membership based in universities, industry, hospitals, research institutes and schools.

Our principal goal is to develop, expand and strengthen the networks available to our members so that they can generate new knowledge about microbes and ensure that it is shared with other communities. The impacts from this will drive us towards a world in which the science of microbiology provides maximum benefit to society.
