Outline

AAPS is the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists Founded in 1986 A professional, scientific association of approximately 11,000 pharmaceutical scientists employed in industry, academia, government, and other research institutes worldwide. AAPS provides a dynamic international forum for the exchange of knowledge among scientists to enhance their contributions to health. AAPS offers timely scientific programs, ongoing education, opportunities for networking, and professional development. What is AAPS ?

Who we are? Multidiscipline involved in the discovery, development, and manufacture of pharmaceutical products and therapies  the Goal of this outreach initiative!

What are Student Benefits? Networking opportunity AAPS Visiting Scientist Program Mentoring Events AAPS Sections, Focus Groups and Discussion Groups Up-to-date pharmaceutical news AAPS Newsmagazine AAPS Student Center Monthly Student/Postdoc Focus s eLearning, Webinars Professional development AAPS Career Network AAPS Awards/Travelships Programming and volunteers AAPS Student Center Student Representative to Sections and Committees
