The Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology is the largest coalition of life sciences societies in the United States, and is comprised of 20 societies with over 60,000 members. The mission of FASEB is to enhance the ability of biomedical and life scientists to improve, through their research, the health, well-being, and productivity of all people. FASEB facilitates coalition activities among member societies and disseminates information on biological research through scientific conferences and publications. FASEB focuses on policy issues important to and affecting the community of biomedical researchers and their work. To support their research efforts, our top priority is urging Congress to provide sustainable and predictable federal funding for scientific research. FASEB is the collective policy voice of biological and biomedical researchers nationwide. The mission of the Clinical and Translational Research Subcommittee is to represent the FASEB member societies on policy issues related to clinical research. Relevant activities for this subcommittee may include, but are not limited to, training, funding, workforce and regulatory issues, and education of scientists and the public as they relate to clinical research. Policy statements and projects related to these issues may stem from the interests of subcommittee members or develop in response to relevant issues as they arise. The Clinical Research Subcommittee will work closely with other committees and subcommittees on issues that are important to the entire research enterprise, such as training and research funding. The goal of this standing subcommittee is to monitor and respond to legislative and policy issues related to the training and career development of graduate students, postdocs, and early career investigators in the biomedical sciences. The subcommittee also tracks and analyzes data on the biomedical workforce and develops and promotes training and career resources aimed at improving the training environment and preparing biomedical scientists for a wide range of careers. Condition: Very good.
