Early Bird Pricing Ends Sunday

The Chesapeake Area Biological Safety Association is pleased to continue to offer ABSA International Affiliate members ChABSA member pricing.  This year the Annual Scientific Symposium and Workshops will be held in-person with live streaming.  This is a great way to get your continuing education while increasing your professional knowledge.  See details below.

ChABSA has added a new feature (similar to our partner the AHMP Cyber Chapter) that we now have access to non-members to track their attendance on the ChABSA website.  See directions at the bottom of the email.  Please note the discount code at the bottom.  Also please note that the ABSA membership does not entitle the registrant to full member benefits, only access to your transcript.

Feel free to forward this to your biosafety and affiliate colleagues.  Space is limited.

The 2023 Chesapeake Area Biological Safety Association’s Scientific Symposium and Workshop registration is now open.  The events will be held on June 6th and 7th at the Universities at Shady Grove in Rockville, and offered virtually*.  Registration links and details on the workshops are below.  For in-person registrations please visit www.chabsa.org.  Registration links below are for virtual only attendees.
