The major objective of this program is to promote the Society, its major functions, career advancement opportunities, and membership benefits to potential members and participants across the United States and around the world.
ASIP Ambassadors reflect the diversity that is present within the membership of the Society. ASIP Ambassadors include individuals representing all stages of career from trainees to senior members, and originate from various academic and non-academic institutions across the United States, and from several other countries. ASIP Ambassadors include individuals from Society leadership including current, past, and future Presidents, members of the ASIP Council, members of various ASIP standing committees, and others. All of our ASIP Ambassadors are dedicated and highly engaged members who actively participate in all aspects of the Society and recognize the value of membership in our Society.
ASIP Ambassadors promote the ASIP to their peers, colleagues, and collaborators, both within their own institutions and beyond. ASIP Ambassadors promote ASIP membership, ASIP meetings/courses, and the ASIP journals.
In order to be an effective ASIP Ambassador, you must have and use the proper tools. Below, you will find information you can print and distribute to those you have identified as potential Society members. If you would like additional materials, different file types (PPT, PNG, etc.), contact Chelsea Broschart (cbroschart@asip.org).
Toolkit Materials for Recruiting New ASIP Members
Toolkit Materials for Promoting Pathobiology 2026
Pathobiology 2026 will be held May 16-19, 2026 at the Caloosa Sound Convention Center in Fort Myers, FL. We need your help in distributing information to your colleagues and encouraging them to attend. Pathobiology 2026 promises to deliver cutting-edge scientific sessions, symposia, workshops, and award lectures mixed with educational and professional development sessions appealing to Trainees and Junior Faculty.
Toolkit Materials for Promoting Publishing in The American Journal of Pathology (The AJP)
The American Journal of Pathology (The AJP) is the most frequently cited pathology journal (with 40,000 citations per year) and is well read (with 1.4 million paper downloads per year). The ASIP Ambassadors promote The AJP as an excellent place to publish basic and translational research related to mechanisms of disease.
Toolkit Materials for Promoting the 2026 Summer Liver Academy Meeting (SLAM)
The 2026 Summer Liver Academy Meeting (SLAM) will be held June 14-18, 2026 at the Westin Cape Coral Resort at Marina Village in Cape Coral, FL. This longstanding conference (previously know as the FASEB Liver Biology Conference) now has a home with the ASIP. This intimate, yet impactful meeting brings together a roster of internationally renowned speakers who share their scientific expertise in the field of liver research.
Ideally, every member of the ASIP serves as an Ambassador and our goal is to establish a culture where promotion of the Society and our exceptional opportunities for members becomes our responsibility and not a duty. Our goal is to have Ambassadors in every state in the nation, in every country abroad where we have members, at all major research institutions (academic, government, industry, biotech, and others), as well as in undergraduate teaching institutions. If your name is missing from our Ambassador Roster, sign-up today!
