About SSIEM, the Society for the Study of Inborn Errors of Metabolism (SSIEM), aims to foster the study of inherited
metabolic disorders. The Society promotes the exchange of ideas among professionals from various disciplines interested in
inborn errors of metabolism. This is facilitated through the organization of annual symposia and scientific meetings, publications, and funding for educational and training support. The SSIEM Council, supplemented by an Advisory Council, offers advice and meets during the annual symposium. The Society, a charity and limited company, accepts donations from supportive sponsors. Although it does not directly fund research, SSIEM provides advice to other organizations that do. Education and training in inborn errors of metabolism are also key objectives of SSIEM.
