The Program Committee’s primarily responsibility is the program for ASP’s annual conference. Members of the Program Committee primarily advise on the selection of plenary speakers, evaluate proposals for symposia/roundtables/workshops, and review abstracts. Select individuals on the committee also prepare the post-conference supplement in the American Journal of Primatology, coordinate continuing education credits for veterinarians who attend the conference, and helps coordinate additional virtual programming opportunities throughout the year, and the committee chair handles organizing and finalizing the program each year.
