IAAAM Member Code of Conduct Statement
The International Association of Aquatic Animal Medicine (IAAAM) exists to advance the art and science of aquatic animal medicine and health and promote free exchange of knowledge. Each of our members is a citizen of the community of science and health care. Each shares responsibility for the welfare of this community and our organization. Science and animal health are best advanced when there is mutual trust, based upon honest behavior, throughout the community. The IAAAM deeply values our members and their professional reputations, and holds preserving the confidence of our members as critically important so that they may: freely discuss the results of their professional work, trust that their fellow members will not divulge inappropriate information, and openly interact with colleagues without fear of malicious exposure. Deception, or any other acts that deliberately compromise the advancement of our profession and our mission, are unacceptable. Any member of the IAAAM found to be in violation of that trust, as reviewed by the IAAAM Executive Board, may have their membership permanently revoked, prohibiting their access to member benefits including professional meetings and conferences.
