| The purpose of
the Microbiology in Schools Advisory Committee (MiSAC) is to promote
the teaching of microbiology in schools and colleges.
Founded in 1969, it consists of experts who
work voluntarily as representatives of the wide range of educational
and scientific organisations that sponsor its activities.
MiSAC develops and publishes new ideas for the
educational use of microorganisms, including practical activities,
answers queries, gives talks, contributes to training courses,
interacts with examination boards, science suppliers, publishers
and industry, and is a recognised authority on the safe use of
microorganisms.
The popular MiSAC annual competition, supported
by sponsorship from professional organisations and industry,
is closely linked to the National Curriculum.
MiSAC has charitable status.
