Statement of interest

I have been a member of the ASBMB since joining as a graduate student. I view the society as a collective voice for members of our discipline to define and promote core values and standards of excellence, while also serving as a force to drive change. I applaud the society’s past successes in providing an inclusive community for members, establishing and maintaining the highest standards in scientific publishing, disseminating scientific advances, recognizing achievements of members, promoting best practices in education and training, furthering scientific communication and outreach, and advocating for research and science policy. There is always more to do in these areas, and I believe they should continue to be the foundation of society activities.

In addition, I see opportunities for the ASBMB to broaden initiatives in two areas. One is to increase diversity and equity in the STEM workforce pipeline. Another is to ensure the future sustainability and impact of the society by enhancing recruitment of the next generation of ASBMB members, for whom the society can serve as a hub for developing networks and maintaining connections to the BMB discipline as they embark on an increasingly broad range of bioscience-related careers.

I would welcome the opportunity to work with the dedicated ASBMB committee members and staff to further these initiatives, as well as to support the important efforts to maintain core society values and best serve members as the ASBMB navigates transitions to open access publishing and independent annual meetings.
