Mission Statement

“The Association of Biomolecular Resource Facilities is an international society dedicated to advancing core and research biotechnology laboratories through research, communication, and education.”

ABRF is a unique membership association comprised of nearly 800 scientists working in resource and research biotechnology laboratories. Our members represent over 140 core laboratories in government, academia, research, industry and commercial settings. The ABRF promotes the education and career advancement of scientists through conferences, a quarterly journal, publication of research group studies and conference travel awards. The society also sponsors multi-center research studies designed to help members incorporate new biotechnologies into their laboratories.
