ASPEN sections (sometimes referred to as special interest groups) provide a forum for members to increase their professional knowledge and interact with others in their fields of interest or those who share the same challenges. Once you join a section, you can take full advantage of practice and specialty news emails, online communities and programming at the ASPEN Nutrition Science & Practice Conference.
