APS members are a community of scientists who dedicate their lives, their careers, and their passion to ensuring safe, secure, and sustainable food, feed, fiber, and fuel, thus assuring a healthy world for future generations. Plant pathology is not just what we "do"―it's who we "are." That's why your active involvement in advocating for the future of plant pathology is so ciritical.

The APS Foundation is committed to growing plant pathology. Foundation funds are used to assist students and early-career professionals with travel costs to annual meetings, finance innovative and international programs, and advance the study and practice of plant pathology for years to come. But we need your help.
