An Invitation to Join the American Society for Bioethics and Humanities

From the ASBH president, and AJOB associate editor Paul Root Wolpe:

Do you enjoy the kind of probing, cutting edge issues you read on bioethics.net., AJOB, and the blog? Do you have a scholarly interest in bioethics or the medical humanities? Then I would like to invite you to join the American Society of Bioethics and Humanities (ASBH).

The ASBH is a dynamic and wide-ranging professional society made up of clinicians, bioethicists, legal scholars, philosophers, theologians, social scientists, historians, and scholars of the medical humanities, among many, many others. The Annual Meeting will be held this year from October 18-21 in Washington, D.C. The theme, Connecting and Collaborating, is dedicated to the widest participation of people from across the disciplines. We hope those involved in human subject protection will join us and contribute to our always lively Annual Meeting.

In addition to the Annual Meeting, joining ASBH has other benefits. Members receive discounts on ten of the major journals in the field; receive our newsletter, ASBH Exchange, with articles and features; have access to the ASBH website, including access to our large membership directory; can join affinity groups in their areas of interest; and can become members of the premier community of scholars in bioethics and the medical humanities.

In order to give even a bit more incentive, join before June 1, and we can offer a 10% discount on your membership (send in only $60, $85, $100 or $125 from the four categories on the ASBH website ).If you have questions, please call our Executive Director, Amy Claver, at (847) 375-4877.
