Are you planning to attend the WCBP Symposium and interested in getting more involved? Help build the conversation to address the role of current and emerging CMC analytical technology among evolving US and international regulatory perspectives by participating in one of the many volunteer opportunities available. The following opportunities will be available:

• Community Voices Presenters
  • We are seeking a group of early-, mid-, and late-career professionals to share stories about the experiences that shaped their career path. This is an all-inclusive session designed to inspire and encourage the audience through the presenter’s use of personal anecdotes and storytelling. 
• Mini-case Facilitators
  • Co-facilitators are assigned to collaborate with each other, write an abstract, and develop 2-5 discussion questions for the assigned topic. Typically, 2-3 total co-facilitators present the case study and discuss it with the attendees. 
• Roundtable Scribes
  • During the roundtable session, scribes are tasked with taking notes to document the roundtable discussion. A week after the symposium concludes, the scribes will send their notes to the CASSS liaison for posting on the CASSS website.
• Roundtable Facilitators
  • Facilitators are assigned to write an abstract and 2-5 discussion questions for the table topic. During the roundtable session, the facilitator will lead the discussion.

These opportunities allow you to make meaningful connections and participate in open discussions on important scientific topics. Build the conversation today. If you are interested in volunteering, please complete the short survey below. The deadline to complete the volunteer interest form is October 1, 2025.
