Fellows
Fellows Overview
Fellows of the American Society of Pharmacognosy are members of the Society who have demonstrated continuing, exceptional contributions to the sciences promoted by the ASP and have records of sustained high-level achievement within their subdisciplines. ASP Fellows include all previous ASP Norman R. Farnsworth Research Achievement Award recipients (formerly known as the ASP Research Achievement Award) who remain in good standing with the Society but may also be appointed based on nominations and subsequent recommendations to the ASP Executive Committee. ASP Fellows serve as an informal advisory body to the ASP in scientific and professional matters of importance to the ASP and to natural products research. Fellows are also charged to serve active roles as advocates for the ASP and the natural products field. Fellows are anticipated to serve lifetime terms.
