There are four categories of membership: Full, Allied Health, Trainee, and Honorary.

• Full Members are investigators in the broad field of intestinal transplantation with an interest in intestinal failure and transplantation who have contributed by their work to the advancement of knowledge in the field. A requirement of Full Membership is that the person must be a Member of the Association. Full Members are eligible to vote at the Business Meetings of the Association and to be an Officer or Councilor of the Association.


• Allied Health Members are persons who have an interest in intestinal failure and transplantation and who have contributed by their work to the advancement of knowledge in the field. Their status must be confirmed by their professional association card. Allied Heath Members have the same voting rights as a Full Member, but are ineligible to be an Officer or Councilor of the Association. They, however, have one standing representative on the Ad Hoc Council committee, and have a reduced membership fee.


• Trainee Members are persons with an interest in intestinal failure and transplantation who are in training positions (which must be confirmed by the signature of their supervisor). Trainee Members have no voting rights and are ineligible to be an Officer or Councilor of the Association.


• Honorary Members are proposed, seconded and elected by a majority vote of the voting Members of the Association via email or at a Business Meeting of the Association. Honorary Members are persons who have made major contributions to the field of intestinal transplantation, and need not necessarily be members of the Association. They have the rights of Full Members (including receipt of any official journals of the Association), but are not required to be members of the Association or to pay dues to the Association, and are not eligible for election as an Officer or Councilor.

The membership application is an online form that you will fill in guide you step by step. Fields with marked by an asterix (*) are mandatory. TTS, IPITA and IXA require that you specify the sponsor(s) supporting your application. When applying for a TTS membership, you will have to provide additional information such as your CV and short professional profile (one-paragraph biographical sketch).

At any time you will be able to log out and complete the application at a later date from where you left off, by logging in with your e-mail and password in the "Returning Applicants" box (to access the form again you will need to return to this page and use the login box found at the bottom right corner. DO NOT attempt to login to the main TTS site as this will not work). You will be able to review the status of your application by logging in with your e-mail and password at anytime.

Once your application has been submitted, the review process will take about 4 to 6 weeks. If your application is accepted, you will be notified by email. Please do not send payment for your dues prior to being accepted as a member.

If you are already a Member of The Transplantation Society and/or one of its sections, you may apply for membership through your membership profile.

To be able to complete this application you must have your CV prepared and saved on your computer (as a PDF document).

Log into your IRTA Membership account and select the Pay Dues / Buy Journals link.
