Members of ASN receive free online access to The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (AJCN), The Journal of Nutrition and Advances in Nutrition. AJCN, published since 1952, is the highest ranked peer-reviewed journal in nutrition and dietetics and publishes basic and clinical studies relevant to human nutrition. JN, published monthly since 1928, carries original, peer-reviewed research in key areas of nutrition. Both journals are widely read and publish studies from over 40 countries. Advances in Nutrition responds to the growing demand for a prestigious, high-profile publication that gathers, synthesizes, and explains the current state of knowledge in all facets of the field.

Members also receive Nutrition Notes, a quarterly newsletter which provides news of member activities, meetings, course offerings, grant opportunities, student news and job opportunities.

All members are eligible to join one or more Research Interest Sections (RIS). The RIS are communities designed to provide a mechanism for topic-specific discussion. Research Interest Sections include Community and Public Health Nutrition, Diet and Cancer, Energy and Macronutrient Metabolism, Experimental Animal Nutrition, Dietary Bioactive Compounds and more.

Additionally, ASN’s three Councils represent the broad spectrum of nutrition research among its members. Members are encouraged to join one or more of the following Scientific Councils: Medical Nutrition, International Nutrition, and Nutritional Sciences.

In recognition of our members’ professional accomplishments, ASN annually administers over twenty awards. ASN members are also eligible to earn CME credits for professional development.

The ASN Annual Meeting is held in conjunction with the Experimental Biology (EB) meeting. ASN members receive discounted registration at the EB meeting. EB, an interdisciplinary, scientific meeting, bringing together over 15,000 scientists from throughout the world. EB is the place for symposia, oral and poster sessions, career services, and to network.

Members save considerably on print subscriptions to JN and AJCN and online access to the ASN journals is free.

ASN is your voice and is committed to increasing the investment in nutrition research. Increasing funding for nutrition research and nutrition monitoring are top public policy priorities.
