Academic Sponsorship of ABRF:The purpose of Academic Sponsorship is to show support of ABRF and its mission to advancing core and research biotechnology laboratories and to indirectly benefit the sponsors. Our goal is to enlist academic cores to participate in ABRF Research Group activities and Committees, to network, to share expertise, and to benchmark. The sponsorship due of $2000 per year entitles the sponsor to have three free ABRF membership slots, a university or institute logo with hyperlink on this page and rotating at the ABRF.org front page, and assistance for its members to contribute to the ABRF society. Other benefit to Academic Sponsorship include free posting to a Job Openings column at the ABRF web pages. There is also a membership-only Who’s Who in Core Facilities page that will facilitate face-recognition of core personnel with expertise in each core technology. The Corporate Relations Committee is in charge of the Academic Sponsorship program. When you have an agreement of support from a new sponsor, please contact Mark Lively who will inform Lisa Hetherington at ABRF@ABRF.org so an invoice can be sent. Later, please send a sponsor logo, and the names of the three free-memberships. We need to enter them into the membership records. Please Cc correspondence to Anthony.Yeung@fccc.edu. Thank you for your support. Tony Yeung. The Fox Chase Cancer Center, a NCI Designated Comprehensive Cancer Center, has the honor of being the first Academic Sponsor of ABRF. The ICBR of the University of Florida has generously become the second Academic Sponsor of ABRF. |
