A special invitation to join the
AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF STRATIGRAPHIC PALYNOLOGISTS (AASP)
The American Association of Stratigraphic Palynologists is the world's
largest palynological society, with a global membership of around 500
members. It's purpose is to promote and foster all aspects of
palynology, including archaeological, forensic, medical and Quaternary
applications, as well as the more traditional stratigraphic approaches.
More about the association can be found at AASP's website:
www.palynology.org
Among AASP's many activities are the organization of an annual meeting,
and publication of a quarterly newsletter, the annual journal
"Palynology", and a wide range of books and monographs. Student
support includes annual scholarships (each worth $1500) and conference
travel grants.
The benefits of joining AASP include receipt of the journal and
newsletter, and reduced registration at the annual meetings.
Membership dues are US$45.00 per year for individuals, and US$30.00 for
students. As a SPECIAL PROMOTIONAL OFFER, new members will receive a
free AASP book of their choice (see below).
To take advantage of this special offer, complete the membership form
on the AASP website (www.palynology.org/content/memapp.html) and
indicate the book you prefer. Or you may join by visiting AASP's booth
at the 11th International Palynological Congress in Granada, Spain,
next week. We hope to see many of you in Granada.
