The American Electrophoresis Society is a unique organization founded in 1980 to improve and promote technologies for electrophoretic separation and detection. The society was formed to promote excellence; to cross many disciplines; to facilitate communication between members worldwide; to facilitate the training of scientists and students in electrophoresis and detection technologies; and to facilitate peers training peers. Its focus includes theoretical modeling of electrophoretic separations of various biomolecules as well as the direct application of those principles and their refinement.
