International Membership Grants

Thanks to generous donations to the AMP Strategic Initiatives Fund, each year up to five non-U.S. laboratory professionals who would not otherwise have access to AMP services and activities due to limited financial resources in the applicant's local environment may apply to receive one year of AMP membership at no charge. The recipients will be AMP Regular members with online access to AMP's journal, The Journal of Molecular Diagnostics. Successful applicants will receive AMP membership for one calendar year. Depending on fund availability, selected recipients may be invited to apply for a second year grant. Application for 2024 are now open.

Eligibility:
Laboratory scientists who reside in countries outside of the United States and who are currently involved in clinical molecular diagnostics are encouraged to apply. Successful applicants will receive AMP membership, active for one calendar year. Current or past AMP members are not eligible for this grant. 

Note: If you are awarded a grant, you will be required to communicate to the International Affairs Committee on how your AMP membership assisted you and others in your region.

Please be prepared to provide the following information for the grant application:

• Country of current residence
• Statement of Interest
