About Us

The Association of Clinical Biochemists and Microbiologists of India (ACBM) is a distinguished organization comprising highly qualified professionals in the fields of Biochemistry, Microbiology, Genetics, Molecular Biology, and related life sciences. Its members, holding advanced degrees like M.Sc., M.Phil., or Ph.D., are actively engaged in teaching, research, and clinical laboratory services. They contribute to the education of undergraduate and postgraduate medical students (MBBS/ MD) and life sciences students (BSc/ MSc/ M.Phil./ Ph.D.), as well as allied medical professionals. Additionally, ACBM members play a vital role in medical laboratories, serving as independent lab in-charges or medical scientists. Their research endeavours extend to prestigious medical and para-medical institutions across India, often under the auspices of renowned councils such as the ICMR, CSIR, and UGC.

ACBM was established in Pune, Maharashtra, on April 9, 2014, with the aim of safeguarding the interests of Biochemists, Microbiologists, and other life science professionals working in India’s healthcare sector. Initially, its scope was confined to Maharashtra, but recognizing the need for a national presence, ACBM expanded its presence to encompass the entire country in 2017. Since then, it has gained significant recognition as a National Association, attracting members from across India.

The organization is dedicated to championing the rights and dignity of its members. Its primary focus is to empower professionals through academic and intellectual exchanges, providing a platform for collaboration and knowledge sharing. ACBM has garnered recognition from various government agencies and autonomous bodies for its contributions to the field of clinical laboratory sciences.
