Date: Fri, 6 Jun 1997 11:24:23 -0400 From: SFN Central Office To: SFN Members Subject: Directory of Neuroscience Training Programs in North America Updated on the Web ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DIRECTORY OF NEUROSCIENCE TRAINING PROGRAMS IN NORTH AMERICA UPDATED ON THE WEB The Association of Neuroscience Departments and Programs is in the process of updating the electronic version of the directory of Neuroscience Training Programs in North America. The directory can be accessed on the World Wide Web at (http://www.andp.org/training). The directory provides a comprehensive listing and description of undergraduate and graduate neuroscience programs in the United States, Canada and Mexico. It also provides information on how to apply and what to look for in a neuroscience program. The Web version of the directory will appear in its entirety on the Internet, including complete program descriptions, and will be regularly updated in lieu of the print version. ANDP does not plan to publish a new print version of the directory in the near future. To assist us in updating the Web version of the directory and ensuring complete program information, responsible parties are asked to review the current listings and use the form provided in this notice to make any revisions and provide complete program descriptions. The directory will be linked to the Home pages of individual training programs of those universities that wish to take advantage of this feature. Listed programs will also have the opportunity to link return e-mail for program contacts. The program listing is free to ANDP members as a benefit of membership, which is based on the calendar year. ANDP members will be identified in the directory by a special logo. Programs must have current membership dues paid by July 1, 1997, for their listings to remain on the Web site. If your program/department would like to become a member of ANDP, please fill out the attached form and mail to Kelli Mills at the address below. Non-ANDP-member neuroscience programs can be listed in the 1997 electronic version of the directory of Neuroscience Training Programs in North America for a fee of $260.00.
