ASTMH Subgroups

ASTMH membership reflects a wide range of expertise in tropical medicine.

Benefits of becoming a subgroup member include receiving information on networking, pre-meeting course and symposia activities planned for Annual Meetings to enhance career development.

Each subgroup is governed by leaders who are elected annually by its members. This ensures ownership of Subgroup initiatives by those interested and invested in current topics of the field. Subgroup leaders are also active participants in discussions with the ASTMH Board. This governance structure ensures Subgroup interests are represented in Society goals and activities intended to serve the ASTMH mission.
