The International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology unites biochemists and molecular biologists in 79 countries and regions.
The Union promotes research and education throughout the world, and especially in countries where the subject is still in its early development.
It achieves this in several ways.
IUBMB President-Elect
The IUBMB Leadership Team is made up of biochemistry professors who volunteer their time to find the most effective ways to promote biochemistry and molecular biology to the next generation and around the world - it is such a privilege to be part of it!
IUBMB Treasurer
What I enjoy most in serving as the IUBMB Treasurer is the good feelings coming from being of some help to young (and not-so-young) fellow scientists all around the planet, with the added bonus of getting a hands-on experience on how Biochemistry may work both on the global scale and in region-specific “microclimates”.
Chair of the Publications Committee
I enjoy serving the international community of biochemistry and molecular biology, to make my contributions in matters related to publication, nomenclature and others.
Chair of the Committee for Congresses and Focused Meetings
What I enjoy the most about my role at the IUBMB is to promote biochemistry and molecular biology among young scientists from different countries.
Ambassador to Africa
The IUBMB provides several opportunities in outreach projects and a vast network of volunteers to promote molecular biosciences to the next generation in Africa.
William ‘Bill’ Whelan, a renowned biochemist with a long history of influential service to the IUBMB, died June 5, 2021
