Current Fellow Resources

The Program is supported through the contribution of dues. Dues go directly to the Fellows Program to support the engagement of our Fellows through such activities as providing peer review services for grants, enhanced recognition, involvement in public policy, increased opportunities to publish in the NAI Journal, special symposia, and more.

Fellowship dues are separate from the membership dues paid by the institutional member. Fellowship dues are assessed to the individual Fellow on an annual basis.

All dues are used to directly support the Fellows Program and assist in honoring and recognizing future generations of top innovators.

• $4,000 Lifetime Membership ($3,120 is tax deductible)

Invoices for NAI Fellows Dues will be issued annually in June to all Fellows (with the exception of those who elect Lifetime Fellows Membership).
