    BENEFITS OF MEMBERSHIP� The American Association for Cancer Research (AACR), a

    � scientific society of over 10,000 laboratory and clinical cancer� researchers, 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 the 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.� Members of the AACR enjoy the following benefits:

    � 1. the privilege of sponsoring a proffered paper (abstract) for� consideration for presentation at the AACR annual meeting;� 2. an advance copy of the Program and Proceedings of the� American Association for Cancer Research pertaining to each

    � annual meeting;� 3. reduced registration rates at annual meetings;� 4. priority notice of small, focussed meetings in the AACR’s� exciting series of Special Conferences in Cancer Research;� 5. reduced registration rates for Special Conferences;� 6. opportunities for participation in AACR meetings in North� America and abroad with other scientific societies around the

    � world;

    � 7. receipt of AACR Newsletters and other important announce-� ments;� 8. early notification of and reduced rates for participation in the� AACR Employment Register;� 9. an up-to-date Membership Directory of thousands of research-� ers in the cancer field;� 10. the professional benefits ofAACR’s public education activities� concerning funding for cancer research and press coverage of

    � the latest research findings;� 11. participation in Summer Workshops that foster networking

    � opportunities and science education for young investigators;

    � and

    � 12. many more ongoing benefits.

    � QUALIFICATIONS FOR MEMBERSHIP� Active membership in the AACR is open to investigators who� live in the Americas. Individuals who have conducted two years of� research resulting in peer-reviewed publications relevant to cancer,

    . or who have made substantial contributions to cancer research in

    an administrative or educational capacity, are eligible. If acandidate has conducted research in an area of biomedical science

    related to cancer, he or she will qualify for membership. Evidenceof patents relevant to cancer research may be submitted as

    qualifications for membership in lieu ofpeer-reviewed publications.

    Corresponding membership is open to persons who are notresidents of the Americas. The qualifications for corresponding

    membership are the same as those indicated above for activemembership. Visiting scientists from outside the Americas who

    intend to return to their countries oforigin by the anticipated timeof election should apply for corresponding membership. All othervisiting scientists should apply for active membership and transfer

    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.
