CRS Focus Group Proposal Form

CRS Focus Groups are member-led communities centered around specific scientific or translational themes. They serve as dynamic platforms for networking, collaboration, knowledge sharing, and professional development. Current Focus Groups include areas such as Nanomedicine, Gene Delivery, Immuno Delivery, and Skin and Mucosal Delivery. We are now looking to expand our Focus Group portfolio with fresh, member-driven initiatives.

To propose a new Focus Group, please complete the form below. Upon the completion of this form, the CRS Board of Directors and Focus Group Director will review the proposal. 

Submission Deadline: November 14, 2025
