NSF BIO at ASBMB

About this event

NSF BIO Officials will be in attendance at the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB) annual meeting on March 23-26, 2024 in San Antonio, Texas. 

Our Assistant Director, Susan Marqusee, will participate in the Women's Networking Dinner on Sunday, March 24, 6:45 - 9:00 pm. This special event offers attendees the opportunity to interact with a distinguished panel of women professionals and to cultivate meaningful connections with fellow participants.

The ASBMB is also hosting a series of chats to connect attendees of DiscoverBMB to funding opportunities from federal agencies. Program Directors, Manju Hingorani and Ishita Mukerji, will give two talks on NSF funding opportunities – the first for students and postdocs on Sunday March 24, 4 - 4.30 pm, and the second for PIs on Monday, March 25, 4 - 4.30 pm. After each twenty minute chat, there will be a brief Q&A session. 

Lastly, the ASBMB will host a Symposium titled, "NIH and NSF perspectives on diversifying STEM sponsored by the ASBMB Mosaic Program," on Tuesday, March 26, 2:30 - 4:15 pm. Program Director, David Rockcliffe, will participate in the symposium to discuss NSF Programs that address diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Our Program Directors will also be available at the NSF booth, #434, in the Exhibit Hall at various times during the conference.
