Each year at the ASID scientific meeting, a world-renowned expert in infectious diseases is invited to give the Macfarlane Burnet Oration, named in honour of the Nobel Prize winning Australian virologist Sir Frank Macfarlane Burnet, a pioneer in the fields of virology and immunology. In honour of their contributions to the study of infectious diseases and their contribution to the ASID conference, Macfarlane Burnet Orators are granted honorary life membership of the society.
