Dear Colleagues,
The American Society for Nanomedicine is a registered non-profit organization. We hope to cultivate an open forum of ideas and collaborative efforts, alongside close cooperation and coordination with our American and international colleagues. The membership base of ASNM is drawn from diverse, yet overlapping fields such as nanotechnology, engineering, medicine, law, policy, ethics, toxicology, biotechnology, pharmaceutical sciences and biomedical sciences. As a member, you will have the opportunity to participate (including being a candidate) in the open elections for the society officers, board members and operating committees, and receive reduced rates to attend ASNM conferences.
Please note that membership is not limited to US citizens. For colleagues in the industry, you are invited to join our innovative, dynamic society by signing up your company as a corporate member. We look forward to seeing you at the conference and benefiting from your active participation in the American Society for Nanomedicine.
