The American Academy of Microbiology outlines the benefits of a portfolio-based approach to advance scientific impact, suggesting future applications.
As the research landscape evolves, scientific societies must adapt their programs to meet changing community needs. The American Academy of Microbiology (Academy or AAM) has recently developed a new model centered around scientific portfolios aimed at advancing its vision of becoming an effective scientific think tank. Here, we describe this transition and the process used to develop and implement a portfolio-based approach. We highlight the Climate Change and Microbes Scientific Portfolio as a case study, demonstrating its successes and its ability to guide the design of future portfolios.
