Nominations

The ABMR Executive Council solicits nominations for new Fellows each year.

Please consider nominating a colleague who you think would make outstanding contributions to the Academy.

THE NOMINATION PERIOD FOR 2026 NEW FELLOWS WILL CLOSE ON 11/07/25.

Help us grow! ABMR is committed to enhancing its diversity, representation, and inclusiveness (including diversity of race/ethnicity, LGBTQ, sex/gender, and disabilities). In addition, we encourage the nomination of new Fellows from a broad range of disciplines relevant to behavioral medicine. New Fellows are expected to attend the meeting the year they are elected, and more importantly, should be invested in ABMR and interested in contributing to the goals and values of the Academy over time.

    2. Candidate has made a significant contribution to the field of behavioral medicine.

    3. Candidate has influenced the work of other scientists or otherwise shown leadership.

    4. If elected, candidate agrees to become an active Fellow (i.e., attend June meetings, pay dues, assist with scientific meetings, serve on Council or a committee).

    1) a copy of the nominee's CV and

    2) nomination letter(s) from at least 2 Academy Fellows whose dues are up to date. It is acceptable to submit a single letter co-signed by 2 Fellows. List of current ABMR Fellows.
