The American Electrophoresis Society is a unique international organization founded to improve and promote technologies necessary for biomolecular separation and detection. The techniques of electrophoresis are numerous and include isoelectric focusing, 2-D / IEF / SDS PAGE, capillary, free-flow, as well as classical gel systems.
Electrophoresis technologies play a central role in many scientific investigations that cover a broad range of disciplines (clinical and basic) from cancer research to molecular biology. Thus, promoting excellence in these technologies and their use will improve the overall quality of resultant data in these areas of endevor.
The American Electrophoresis Society is:
- dedicated to the development, refinement of electrophoretic and detection technologies.
- formed to promote excellence - good science and techniques, and
- designed to cross many disciplines;
- to facilitate collaboration and communication between members worldwide;
- to facilitate the training of scientists and students in electrophoresis and detection technologies; and
- to facilitate peers training peers.
The Society is interested in theoretical modeling of electrophoretic separations of various biomolecules, as well as, the direct application of those principles and their refinement.
