The Society of Behavioral Medicine (SBM) is a professional membership organization of approximately 2,400 researchers, clinicians, and educators from around the world. It was founded in 1978. The society’s stated mission is to promote the study of the interactions between behavior, biology and environment, and to apply that knowledge in service of the mental and physical well-being of individuals and communities. Members work in many healthcare specialities including cancer, chronic disease, obesity, and physical activity. SBM is headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Publications
SBM publishes two peer-reviewed medical journals: Annals of Behavioral Medicine (ABM) and Translational Behavioral Medicine (TBM). ABM publishes original research on behavioral medicine and the integration of biological, psychosocial, and behavioral factors and principles. TBM aims to create dialogue in the behavioral medicine community by publishing content that overlaps the research, practice, and policy spheres of the discipline.

Annual Meeting
