The American Society for Clinical Investigation (ASCI), established in 1908, is one of the oldest and most respected medical honor societies in the United States. ==Organization and purpose== The ASCI is an honorary society to which more than 2,800 physician-scientists from all medical specialties belong. Prospective members are proposed by standing members of the society and elected to ASCI on the basis of an outstanding record of scholarly achievement in biomedical research. The ASCI includes physician-scientists who are active clinically, in basic research, or in teaching. Many of its senior members are widely recognized leaders in academic medicine. At present, the membership of ASCI includes 303 members of the Institute of Medicine, 155 members of the United States National Academy of Sciences, 29 Lasker Award winners and 16 Nobel laureates. The ASCI supports the research into basic mechanisms and/or treatment of human diseases, and to the education of future generations of physician-scientists. The ASCI considers the nominations of several hundred physician-scientists from the United States and abroad each year and elects up to 80 new members each year for their significant research accomplishments relatively early in their careers. The ASCI is a member of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB), which includes numerous biomedical research societies. The ASCI publishes the ''Journal of Clinical Investigation'', a peer-reviewed biomedical research journal. A collection of the society's papers are held at the National Library of Medicine.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=American Society for Clinical Investigation Records 1907-1977 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「American Society for Clinical Investigation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
