AFFILIATED SOCIETIES
International Mass Spectrometry Foundation (IMSF)
The IMSF role is to connect societies and members, and to foster and encourage the growth and application of mass spectrometry across the globe. By enabling greater collaboration, through organization of conferences, workshops and summer schools, and the Nico Nibbering Travel Grants scheme the IMSF will promote and nurture dissemination of knowledge covering all aspects of mass spectrometry. The IMSF is committed to embracing equal opportunities and reflecting all aspects of diversity in all of its activities to promote mass spectrometry across the globe.
Human Proteome Organization (HUPO)
Founded in 2001, the Human Proteome Organization (HUPO) is an international scientific organization representing and promoting proteomics through international cooperation and collaborations. HUPO promotes the development and application of proteomics technologies for enhancement of biological knowledge, global health and wellness. HUPO advances these goals through international collaboration, coordination, education, and advocacy in an inclusive and empowering environment.
The Metabolomics Society is dedicated to promoting the growth, use and understanding of metabolomics in the life sciences. The Metabolomics Society is an independent, non-profit organization, governed by a Board of Directors composed of dedicated members of the metabolomics community but ultimately responsive to its members. The Metabolomics Society’s vision is to become the premier organization devoted to the development of metabolism-based research. Constituted in 2004, the Metabolomics Society now has more than 1,000 members in more than 40 countries.
Asia Oceania Human Proteome Organization (AOHUPO)
AOHUPO was established in 2001 to coordinate the activities of the AO regional proteomics community, in complement to the international Human Proteome Organization (HUPO). With this in mind, AOHUPO has firmly established the tradition of organizing a highly successful biennial conference being hosted by different countries in the region. Since its formation, AOHUPO has grown rapidly to include 17 member countries and with each country being represented by one council member, who is usually an office bearer from the country proteomics or protein society.
