New Application Process for Non-Scientific Programming at the 2017 ASCB | EMBO Meeting

ASCB is providing a new opportunity for members to help organize the Annual Meeting. You can submit ideas for a non-scientific session at the upcoming meeting in Philadelphia online by June 1.

Two of the biggest names in research biology are joining forces next year in Philadelphia for ASCB/EMBO 2017

This new process is intended to avoid overlapping programs and improve scheduling. All applications will be reviewed by a committee, and notifications will be sent to applicants by July 3.

ASCB members, ASCB committees, and outside organizations are invited to submit applications for sessions that focus on education, career development, international relations, and/or diversity in the scientific workforce. The committee will review applications on the basis of relevance, intended audience, and audience engagement. Committees offering programs with external grant funding will also need to submit an application.

The application will be available online in mid-February. More information and the link to the application will be forthcoming via email and future Newsletter issues.
