About the Board
Elected by the Council of Representatives, Board members oversee FABBS’ activities and interact regularly with the Washington, DC office to create an agenda for advancing our disciplines and improving the quality of life for all. Since we cannot take for granted the federal support for our sciences, FABBS Board members work to ensure that we have a presence in Washington, DC, and that scientists in our disciplines have a seat at the table.
