Consistent with our society's strategic plan, the ASPET Annual Meeting held during Experimental Biology (EB)  provides our members with a professional home to advance pharmacology research, exchange knowledge, and increase the impact and influence of our discipline. We look forward to sharing the 2020 meeting program, which promises an impressive list of speakers and events, in the near future.
 
Looking ahead to future EB meetings, we wanted to make you aware of a recent decision by one of our partners, the American Physiological Society (APS). The APS recently announced to their membership that they will cease meeting as part of EB starting in 2023. While we will miss the collaborations and camaraderie that we have shared with APS at our joint meetings, this opens up new opportunities for meeting locations, formats, and partnerships that are more closely tailored to our members' needs as were identified in our member survey earlier this summer.
 
ASPET's goal is and will continue to be to serve our members by holding an annual meeting that is the place to discover and present the highest quality, innovative science in pharmacology and experimental therapeutics.

Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns to membership@aspet.org.
