IT INCLUDES SCIENTIFIC SYMPOSIA SUMMARIZING RECENT ADVANCES IN CELL BIOLOGY, AND PRESENTATION OF APPROXIMATELY 3,000 SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH FINDINGS. THE ABSTRACTS OF SCIENTIFIC PAPERS FROM THE ANNUAL MEETING ARE PUBLISHED ANNUALLY BY THE SOCIETY. THE MEETING ALSO FEATURES COMMERCIAL EXHIBITS OF PRODUCTS AND SERVICES FOR SCIENTISTS WORKING IN THE FIELD OF BIOLOGY. THE EXHIBITS INCLUDE SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS, LABORATORY EQUIPMENT, CHEMICALS, AND PUBLICATIONS. THE ANNUAL MEETING ALSO FEATURES EXTENSIVE EDUCATION, CAREER, PUBLIC POLICY AND SESSIONS OF SPECIAL INTEREST TO UNDERREPRESENTED MINORITIES AND WOMEN. 733326 1000 1058773 JOURNAL AND OTHER PUBLICATIONS - THE ASCB OWNS AND PUBLISHES THE SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL MOLECULAR BIOLOGY OF THE CELL, THE QUARTERLY JOURNAL CBE - LIFE SCIENCES EDUCATION, AND THE ASCB NEWSLETTER, PUBLISHED 6 TIMES A YEAR. 538622 233610 NIH IPERT GRANT - THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF HEALTH, NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF GENERAL MEDICAL SCIENCES IPERT (INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS TO ENHANCE RESEARCH TRAINING) GRANT FUNDS THE MAJORITY OF THE PROGRAMS OF THE ASCB MINORITY AFFAIRS COMMITTEE (MAC). THE MAC'S GOAL IS TO SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE THE INVOLVEMENT OF UNDERREPRESENTED MINORITY SCIENTISTS IN ALL ASPECTS OF THE ASCB AND CELL BIOLOGY. TO ACHIEVE THIS GOAL, THE MAC OFFERS MANY PROGRAMS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR TO PROMOTE THE RECRUITMENT AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF MINORITY SCIENTISTS. THE RELATIVELY SMALL POOL OF MINORITY SCIENTISTS WITH AN INTEREST IN CELL BIOLOGY REQUIRES THAT MAC ALSO DEVELOP PROGRAMS FOR UNDERGRADUATE AND PRE-DOCTORAL STUDENTS TO ASSIST THEM IN ACHIEVING CAREERS IN BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH. A LONG RANGE GOAL OF THE MAC IS TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE NATION'S EFFORT TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF UNDERREPRESENTED MINORITY SCIENTISTS. 496964 118643 45098 THE COMMITTEES - THE SOCIETY ORGANIZES COMMITTEES TO BRING INDIVIDUALS TOGETHER TO DISCUSS POSSIBLE MEANS TO SOLVE PROBLEMS; IMPLEMENTS PROGRAMS TO BENEFIT THE CELL BIOLOGY COMMUNITY AND THE PUBLIC.THE SOCIETY'S ACTIVE COMMITTEES ARE AS FOLLOWS: EDUCATION, FINANCE & AUDIT, INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS, MINORITY AFFAIRS, PROGRAM, PUBLIC INFORMATION, COUNCIL, EXECUTIVE, PUBLIC POLICY, WOMEN IN CELL BIOLOGY, NOMINATING COMMITTEE AND COMMITTEE FOR POST-DOCTORAL PROFESSIONS AND STUDENTS. 259955 240585 COALITION FOR THE LIFE SCIENCES - THE ASCB IS A MEMBER OF THE COALITION FOR THE LIFE SCIENCES, (CLS).
