“I have been a member of APS since I was a graduate student because of the benefits and opportunities it provided scientists at that stage of my career. Through the years, I have continued to be a member so I can engage with the top researchers working in peptide science from around the globe.”

"The APS has been an integral part of my PhD experience. Between introducing me to a broad array of peptide science, allowing me to meet and develop relationships with colleagues near and far, and providing me with the opportunity to present, discuss, and get feedback on my own research, APS has provided a foundation for the beginning of my career."
