Introducing OHBM MEMBERSHIP+ – Membership over the years

Looking at OHBM membership data and a new membership tier

OHBM transitioned to a scientific society in 2018 with the goal of delivering year-round engagement for the society’s members rather than being solely about the annual meeting. However, if one looks at the raw membership numbers over the last 17 years, the main perceived membership benefit remains connected to the annual meeting. In particular, yearly membership numbers fluctuate with meeting location, with highest membership numbers from the same geographic region. 

Unfortunately, this means that the society-based aspects of OHBM and many of the benefits of being an OHBM member have been largely overlooked. Thus, OHBM leadership is introducing a new MEMBERSHIP+ initiative to create a greater engagement of members on top of the annual meeting, strengthening OHBM as a society.

2023 is well underway. Holiday breaks and New Year’s parties seem but a distant memory. Since our end-of-2022 update, we have released four new episodes of Neurosalience, on which you can feast your eyes and ears. We released a long-awaited interview with ComCom, the curators of this very blog. Peter also interviewed Jeff Binder on concept representation, Lily Mujica-Parodi on modelling control systems, and Matthew Wall on the clinical utility of psilocybin.​

The Future of Focused Virtual Meetings: Highlighting the 2022 qMRI Conference

Naomi L. Gaggi

OHBM leadership is interested in maximizing OHBM year-round. And so, it is critical to explore recent small virtual events to learn more about what these year-round virtual meetings could look like. One example of a successful virtual conference is the Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Neurodegeneration conference (2022 qMRI Conference), which took place online from October 26–28, 2022. The conference highlighted the latest advances in quantitative MRI (qMRI) methodology and how these novel tools are being applied to study different neurodegenerative conditions. 

I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Mallar Chakravarty, Dr. Christopher Rowley, Aurélie Bussy, and Olivier Parent about both their experience planning this kind of virtual event as well as what lessons they believe that OHBM can learn and apply to future focused and virtual endeavors. These are the key takeaways from our discussion:
