Abraham David Sobel was
born on September 29, 1909 and died on his 98th birthday. Mark
Sobel, ASIP's Executive Officer, has established the Abraham David
Sobel-ASIP Education Fund to perpetuate his father's lifelong interest
in supporting education and training for young scientists. The
Fund will be used to support education and mentorship of trainee members
of the ASIP.
To date, over 50
individuals have contributed nearly $15,000 to the Abraham David
Sobel-ASIP Education Fund.
About ASIP
The mission of the
Society is to promote the discovery, advancement, and dissemination of
knowledge in experimental pathology and related disciplines. This shall
be achieved by fostering investigation into the pathogenesis,
classification, diagnosis, and manifestations of disease through
meetings, publications, and educational activities.
The American Society for Investigative Pathology (ASIP) is a society of
biomedical scientists who investigate mechanisms of disease.
Investigative pathology is an integrative discipline that links the
presentation of disease in the whole organism to its fundamental
cellular and molecular mechanisms. Investigative pathology uses a
variety of structural, functional, and genetic techniques and ultimately
applies research findings to the diagnosis and treatment of diseases.
ASIP advocates for the practice of investigative pathology and fosters
the professional career development and education of its members.
ASIP is a member of the Federation of American Societies for
Experimental Biology (FASEB), a coalition of 21 independent societies
that plays an active role in lobbying for the interests of 84,000
biomedical scientists.
