How Do I Become an Associate Member?
Associate membership is being offered to Instructors, Research Associates, Research Fellows, Postdoctoral Fellows, and Graduate Students.

ITMAT is designed to focus on the translational space, which we define as lying between proof of concept in cells and model systems and the completion of studies in mechanism and rational dose selection, ideally for individualized therapeutics at the end of Phase II. If your research interests lie within this area, we particularly welcome you as Associate Members of ITMAT.
