Mission Statement: The Society is a multidisciplinary organization of clinicians, educators and scientists dedicated to promoting the study of the interactions of behavior with biology and the environment, and the application of that knowledge to improve the health and well-being of individuals, families, communities and populations.

About the Society of Behavioral Medicine
The Society of Behavioral Medicine is a multidisciplinary, non-profit organization founded in 1978. SBM has created the premiere scientific forum for over 2,000 behavioral and biomedical researchers and clinicians to study the interactions of behavior, physiological and biochemical states, and morbidity and mortality. SBM provides the many disciplines represented with an interactive network for education and collaboration on common research, clinical and public policy concerns related to prevention, diagnosis and treatment, rehabilitation, and health promotion.

About the 2013 Meeting
Invited speakers will highlight areas that represent the broad range of interest areas within our membership as well as describe opportunities to expand the impact of behavioral medicine. Featured presentations will address thematic areas including linking behavior to brain health, using computers to encourage behavior change, utilizing mobile sensors to enhance patient care, harnessing social media to disseminate health information, and enhancing clinicians’ capabilities to deliver smoking cessation counseling. In addition, we anticipate presentations that will cover the latest information related to genetics, genomics and behavioral medicine, obesity, cancer, cardiovascular health, intervention dissemination and implementation, health policy, and mentoring/career development.
