A Word from the Treasurer

Ann Baldwin

MONEY

Thank you to all the members who have paid their dues for 2001. As many of you know, you can now just go to Society Website and pay your dues by credit card with top security. I am pleased to announce that due to payment of costs from Nature Publishing to support production of our journal ($15,000 for last year and $6,000 of $12,000 for this year), our bank balance looks much healthier. However, the success of the Microcirculatory Society depends on your dues, so please remember to pay the Society when the reminder comes around. Another way you can help is by recruiting new members. If enough people can recruit just one new member each, it will make a big difference to our Society. More recruitment means greater influx of fresh new blood! Once again, thank you for your efforts in maintaining the Microcirculatory Society as an organ for fruitful and exciting scientific interactions.
