The start of 2025 marks an important milestone for ASPET and its highly respected and influential journals program. Beginning January 1, all of ASPET’s wholly owned journals (The Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, Pharmacological Reviews, Drug Metabolism and Disposition, and Molecular Pharmacology) are now published on Elsevier’s platform. This change comes for ASPET after approximately 30 years of self-publishing, so rest assured that this change was not made lightly.

The first cohort of the American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics’ (ASPET) Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility (IDEA) faculty scholars have been selected. The ASPET IDEA Committee, under the direction of IDEA Committee Chair Ashim Malhotra, PhD, chose 13 ASPET members to participate based on an application process that included a Curriculum Vitae, a statement of interest and a summary of participation goals. The program started in the fall.
Each month, ASPET welcomes new members to our home for pharmacology. This month, we recognize 144 individuals from 97 universities, colleges and companies who have joined 4,000 other members in the pharmacology community.

For a long time, my grandfather suffered from indigestion. In his day, gastritis (i.e., inflammation of the stomach lining) was thought to be due to excessive acid secretion. And damage from stomach acid could cause peptic ulcers.
