Multiple Types of Membership to Suit Everyone!

AABHL understands that everyone is different and so offers many membership types to suit your particular situation.

If you are an academic, student or retired you can sign up as an individual.

If you are part of an institutional faculty, you can take out an institution membership so that your colleagues can take advantage of membership in AABHL as well!

Individual Membership

Journal – AABHL members receive subscription to the Journal of Bioethical Inquiry (JBI), an international, peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary journal co-sponsored by the AABHL.

Conference – AABHL members receive special conference rates to attend the annual AABHL conference which attracts national and international experts in bioethics and provides a great opportunity for members to present their work and discuss their ideas with others engaged in the field of bioethics.

Workshops – AABHL members receive special rates to attend workshops convened periodically on new and emerging topics.

Tweets – AABHL shares information about current events and opinion commensurate with its interests via Tweets (@AABHL).

Networking – AABHL members are provided with the opportunity to collaborate with similarly interested professionals and with other bioethics organisations. Membership to the AABHL provides a focus for those with interest or expertise in specific areas of bioethics to develop educational and resource collaborations.

Student members – The AABHL provides special membership and conference rates for students and offers two prizes for a outstanding student essays presented at AABHL conferences.

Resources via the Website – The AABHL website provides access to other AABHL members, notices of important upcoming events and links to other important bioethics sites and resources locally and internationally.

This may include conference slide presentations, with permission of the authors.
