The Microscopy Society of Malaysia (MSM), known in Malay as Persatuan Mikroskopi Malaysia, was officially established on April 23, 1991, under its original name Persatuan Mikroskopi Elektron Malaysia. As the field of microscopy and microanalysis rapidly evolved, the society embraced a broader vision and, in 2010, adopted its current name to reflect its expanded scope and inclusivity. Today, MSM stands as a nationally and internationally respected organization, representing Malaysia’s microscopy community and championing the advancement of microscopy and microanalysis techniques. Driven by a commitment to foster critical, independent, and innovative scholarship, MSM leads several flagship initiatives. These include the biennial Scientific Conference of the Microscopy Society of Malaysia (SCMSM) and the publication of the Malaysian Journal of Microscopy (MJM)—both serving as vital platforms for knowledge exchange and scientific excellence. Beyond these, MSM actively collaborates with various institutions and networks to support workshops, training programs, and outreach activities. The society is dedicated to cultivating an inclusive and dynamic environment where members can share expertise, build meaningful connections, and pursue excellence in microscopy across diverse disciplines in Malaysia.
Our members come from different institutions and countries around the world.
Our annual event provides an opportunity to gather and share new findings in microscopy.
We have published 20 volumes of the journal since 2005.
Our membership grows every year. Join us today!
