Internationally, the Society is a constituent society of the International Union of Societies for Biomaterials Science and Engineering (IUSBSE) who coordinate international activities, including the World Biomaterials Congress.
ASBTE Goals
The ASBTE aims to provide a forum for dissemination of research knowledge in the fields of biomaterials and tissue engineering. This is achieved through annual meetings, which also bring researchers together for generating opportunities for collaborative research. This society also strongly believes in supporting students and early-career researchers through conference and travel awards.
