ASBMB committees

The ASBMB provides multiple opportunities for members to get involved through service on our committees. Committee members are appointed by the ASBMB Council at the recommendation of the individual committee. Members are appointed to a three-year term, which is renewable one time and typically runs from July 1 to June 30. The ASBMB encourages applications from members of underrepresented groups, as well as early-career scientists, in the governance of the society to ensure diversity, equity and inclusion. Additionally, the committees strive for institutional, geographic and career stage diversity.

Member eligibility

Committee membership is open to the following ASBMB membership categories: regular, industry, early-career, graduate student, affiliate and emeritus. Committee members are expected to participate and be engaged in committee activities and have a genuine interest in the committee’s mission.
