Instructions for AuthorsScopeCELL GROWTH & DIFFERENTIATION publishes significant, orig-inal research on the molecular biology of cancer. The journal’sscope encompasses a broad range of in vitro and in vivo studiespertaining to normal and abnormal cellular processes. Topics in-dude oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, gene expression andregulation, transcription factors, growth factors and their receptors,molecular mechanisms of tumor progression, signal transduction,cell cycle, differentiation, and development. Papers may be of anylength, provided they are written concisely. All submissionsundergo peer review by experts in the field and are publishedwithin about ten weeks of acceptance.
In addition to original studies, the journal publishes ResearchCapsules, invited papers which summarize and update rapidlychanging concepts in molecular biology. The journal also featuresa Viewpoints section which serves as a forum for signed or anon-ymous write-in discussion of studies published in CELL GROWTH& DIFFERENTIATION or in other journals. All submissions to theViewpoints section will be subject to review prior to publication.

QUALIFICATIONS FOR MEMBERSHIP
Associate membership is open to graduate students, medicalstudents, postdoctoral fellows, and physicians in training who are
following a course of study or who are working in a research
program relevant to cancer. Scientists in training who already
have a substantial record of publications may wish to apply for
active or corresponding membership which confers full benefits of
membership.
BENEFITS OF MEMBERSHIP
The American Association for Cancer Research (AACR), a
scientific society consisting of laboratory and clinical cancerresearchers, was founded in 1907 to facilitate communication and
dissemination of knowledge among scientists and others dedicated
to the cancer problem: to foster research in cancer and related
biomedical sciences; to encourage presentation and discussion of
new and important observations in the field; to foster public
education, science education, and training; and to advance the
understanding of cancer etiology, prevention, diagnosis, and
treatment throughout the world. Associate members of the AACR
enjoy the following benefits:
1. the privilege ofsponsoring a paper for presentation at the AACRannual meeting provided that (a) the associate member is the
presenter of the paper and (b) an active, corresponding, emeri-
tus, or honorary member in good standing of the AACR also
signs the abstract of the paper in support of the work (In this
instance, the member who cosigns the abstract does not lose hisor her own sponsorship privilege.);
2. an advance copy of the scientific Program and (if one has beenpurchased by the associate member) the Proceedings of the
American Association for Cancer Research which containsabstracts of all papers being presented at each annual meeting;
3. the privilege of registering for the annual meeting at the lowstudent rate (This rate is otherwise available only to predoctoral
students.);
4. preferred access to the AACR Employment Register;5. optional subscriptions to the Association’s high-quality journals
Cancer Research, Cell Growth & Differentiation, Cancer Epide-
miology, Biomarkers & Prevention, and Clinical Cancer Resea rchat reduced member rates;
6. priority notification of events in the AACR’s series of specialconferences on timely subjects in the field;
7. reduced registration rates at special conferences;
8. the receipt of AACR newsletters, meeting announcements, andan up-to-date membership directory; and
9. the facilitation of informal scientific exchange with leadingresearchers in the cancer field.
PROCEDURES FOR APPLICATION
Persons wishing to apply for associate membership must use the
official application form on the reverse side of these instructions.Each candidate for associate membership must be nominated by an
active, corresponding, emeritus, or honorary member in goodstanding of the AACR. Three completed copies of the form should
be submitted; at least one of these copies must carry the original
signatures of both the candidate and the nominator. The applica-tion form may be submitted to the Association Office at any time.
After review of applications for associate membership, the
Executive Director will notify candidates of their election or
deferral within one month of the receipt of the application form.
A check for one year’s dues payment must accompany the applica-
tion. Dues for 1994 are $30 for associate members residing in the
Americas and $40 for residents of other countries. For 1995 these
rates are $35 and $45, respectively. This fee will be refunded toany candidate deemed to be ineligible for associate membership.
Checks should be in U.S. currency, made payable to AACR, Inc.,and drawn on a U.S. bank. Send the three copies ofthe application
form and the appropriate dues payment to:
American Association for Cancer Research
Public Ledger Building, Suite 816
150 5. Independence Mall West
Philadelphia, PA 19106-3483
215/440-9300
RESPONSIBILITIES OF MEMBERSHIP
Associate members must pay annual dues in an amount to be
determined by the AACR Board of Directors. Dues for 1994 have
been set at $30 per year for residents of the Americas and $40 for
residents ofother countries. For 1995 these rates are $35 and $45,
respectively. If an application is submitted by August 31, the
accompanying dues payment will be credited to the current year.
Candidates submitting applications between September 1 and
December 31 may indicate whether they wish their dues payments
credited to the current or forthcoming year. Candidates should be
aware, however, that associate members may sponsor an abstract
for the annual meeting only if their dues for the current year are
paid. For example, an associate member submitting an abstract in
October 1994 for the forthcoming annual meeting must have paid
dues for 1994. Any newly elected associate members of the AACRwho have already purchased subscriptions to Cancer Research , CellGrouth & Differentiation, Cancer Epidemiology, Bioniarkers &Prevention, and Clinical Cancer Research at the higher, nonmem-ber rate will receive a refund for the unused portion of that
subscription upon receipt oftheir payment for a member’s subscrip-
tion.
Each Fall the AACR will send to current associate members aninvoice for dues for the forthcoming year. Payment of this invoice
must be accompanied by a statement signed by the associate
member’s current registrar, dean, or department head, verifying
the member’s current academic status. The Association’s By-Laws
state that dues are payable for each year in advance by January 1
of the year to which they should be applied. An individual may be
an associate member for a maximum of five years. Each year in
which an individual pays dues will count as one full year of
associate membership. Thus, an associate member who pays dues
for 1994 may retain associate membership until December 31,
1998. The Board ofDirectors may terminate the membership of an
associate member whose dues are in arrears for two years.
