UK's leading biology organisations agree to unification

27 Apr 2009


Members of the UK’s two leading biology organisations, the Institute of Biology (IoB) and the Biosciences Federation (BSF), have voted overwhelmingly in favour of unification to form a single organisation, the Society of Biology. This positive development takes the IoB and BSF a step closer to the creation of an organisation that combines the expertise of the learned societies and other biology organisations with the professional skills of the IoB and its individual members. The forthcoming integration of the Institute of Biology and the Biosciences Federation offers a unique opportunity to create the leading organisation for biology in the UK.
