LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

Dear SSPD member,

This year, the SSPD will sponsor two events:
  1. an evening session at the annual meeting of the American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics (ASPET) (June 4 - 8) in Boston.
  2. an evening session at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience (November 4-9, 2000) in New Orleans.
I hope you will participate in one or both of these events.

The evening session at the ASPET meeting in Boston is scheduled for Wed, June 7. The deadline for receipt of abstracts, which should be sent to the Secretary-Treasurer, Jenny Wiley, is April 15, 2000. Attending the Boston meeting promises to be of special interest to behavioral pharmacologists, because this will be the first year that the newly formed Division of Behavioral Pharmacology will participate in the ASPET meeting, and because the Behavioral Pharmacology Society (BPS) is organizing a meeting in Boston on June 2–3, immediately before the ASPET meeting.

The specific date for the evening session at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience in New Orleans will be decided in the next few months.

Thanks to the efforts of Ian and Dominic Stolerman, the Past-President, Charles France, and the Secretary-Treasurer, Jenny Wiley, the SSPD now has its own web site (www.sspd.org.uk). Please visit our site for further details about this year's events as they become available.

I would like to thank Charles and Jenny for all the work they did for the SSPD in 1999, and for organizing a very successful symposium (entitled "Drug Discrimination, A Unique Tool in Drug Discovery") during the 1999 EBPS/BPS meeting in Boston, and an evening session at the 1999 Neuroscience meeting in Miami Beach.

Traditionally of an informal nature, SSPD evening sessions have come to be known as excellent opportunities for science and socializing. I hope you will consider submitting a paper for presentation at one or both of the evening sessions in 2000, and look forward to seeing you in Boston and in New Orleans.

Yours sincerely,
Wouter Koek, Ph.D.
President
