The International Affairs Committee endeavors to advance molecular pathology around the globe through educational and professional activities. It was established in 2010 as a working group, became an ad hoc committee in 2015 and became a standing committee in 2019.

Although the majority of AMP members reside in the U.S., the AMP founding members desired to create a global organization. Today, AMP International Affairs Committee members and International Affiliates can be found in more than 50 countries and all continents except Antarctica.
