Subject: Sponsored Subscriptions to Science: Call for Nominations
Dear Dr. Wittenberg:
In support of the AAAS/Science Program for Excellence in Science, several corporations are sponsoring a number of three-year subscriptions to Science (which includes membership in AAAS) for graduate students, medical students and postdocs working in the life sciences. We would like your help in identifying deserving individuals.
Those selected for recognition will receive a full membership in AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science) for three years, which includes a subscription to the digital version of the weekly journal Science at no charge.
This program is open to individuals who are neither current nor past AAAS members/Science subscribers. You may nominate as many as 50 individuals (or more if appropriate) by simply sending us their names and e-mail addresses by 21-Jul-16. Would you please copy your nominees on the e-mail you send back to us so they know they've been nominated and will be expecting to hear from us?
Nominees will be contacted and invited to participate in the AAAS/Science Program for Excellence in Science. Those who are ultimately selected will join the nearly 130,000 AAAS members and Science subscribers in the world's largest multidisciplinary science organization.
If you have any questions, please e-mail Gail Kolanowski at gkolanow(a)aaas.org<mailto:gkolanow@aaas.org> or call 001-810-515-1972. Thank you for becoming part of the AAAS/Science Program for Excellence in Science.
Sincerely,
