About SSIEM
The aim of the Society is to foster the study of inherited metabolic disorders and related topics. The Society exists to promote exchange of ideas between professional workers in different disciplines who are interested in inborn errors of metabolism (IEM). This is achieved through the organization of the annual symposium and associated scientific meetings, publications and provision of funding for educational and training support. The SSIEM Council (Council) is also supplemented by an Advisory Council who provide advice and meet with the Council at the annual symposium.
The Society, a registered charity and limited company, accepts donations from sponsors sympathetic to its aims. The Council, within its financial resources, is willing to spread interest and study in inborn errors around the world by selectively supporting membership and attendance at conferences from areas of the world where financial resources are more limited. The Society does not directly fund research, but offers on request, advice to other organizations that do so. Education and training in IEM are also an important aim of the SSIEM.
