A flyer with a dark blue and black gradient background, with faint microbes decorating it. It announces the Black in Micro Week 2025 Keynote Speaker, Dr Marian Johnson-Thompson, that will take place at 12 PM (EST), October 14. Talk title: "β€œThe Persistent Journey of Black Microbiologists: Where We Have Been and Where We Must Go”. The blurb states that the talk with cover the stories of Black pioneer contributors and also provide a foundation for discussion on how important it is to attract, retain and develop successful strategies for future Black Microbiologists. Dr. Johnson-Thompson is a microbiologist, biomedical researcher, educator and administrator. She also serves on ASM’s Center for the History of Microbiology and ASM (CHOMA) Committee and ensures that contributions of Black Microbiologists are addressed and included in ASM’s archives.
