About ASBMR
Purpose
The American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR) is a professional, scientific and medical society established to bring together clinical and experimental scientists involved in the study of bone and mineral metabolism. ASBMR encourages and promotes the study of this expanding field through annual scientific meetings, an official journal (Journal of Bone and Mineral Research), the Primer on the Metabolic Bone Diseases and Disorders of Mineral Metabolism, advocacy and interaction with government agencies and related societies.
Origin
The Society was incorporated as a nonprofit organization in 1977, in St. Louis, Missouri, USA.
Membership
The ASBMR membership comprises basic research scientists, and clinical investigators in bone and mineral metabolism and related fields along with physicians and other healthcare practitioners. Current worldwide membership numbers approximately 4,000 with interests in biomechanics, cell biology, molecular biology, dentistry, developmental biology, endocrinology, epidemiology, internal medicine, metabolism, molecular biology, molecular genetics, nephrology, obstetrics-gynecology, orthopaedics, pathology, pharmacology, physiology, rheumatology and other research/clinical areas.
Annual Meeting
The most recent meeting of the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research, held in Nashville, Tennessee, USA, attracted nearly 5,500 attendees from over 50 different countries. The next meeting will be held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, September 15-19, 2006. Click here for more information on the 2006 ASBMR Annual Meeting.
