Specialised scientific and clinical activity groups within the APSR are called 'assemblies'.
The purpose of these includes the production of clinical guidelines and position statements, and assistance in fostering and improving clinical practice and research. As such, assemblies are in a prime position to help develop the scientific programme of the annual APSR Congresses.
APSR members are encouraged to join one or more assemblies which currently cover the following broad fields:
