IAPT Membership Renewal
Dear colleagues,
With one week before the end of the year this is a reminder to renew your IAPT membership for 2023. Everyone, except Life Members, needs to renew their membership every year. Renew now for 2023 to continue enjoying the benefits of membership, and to continue supporting IAPT. If you have already renewed we thank you very much for your support of IAPT.
IAPT is an international organization that supports research on the taxonomy and systematics of plants, fungi, and algae. We support and facilitate governance of our system of nomenclature. We publish the journal Taxon, which is the leading international journal in our field, as well as books on a wide range of topics. We give grants for research and collections improvements. We organize and host international symposia and workshops. And we give prestigious awards to recognize accomplishments in our field. Your membership support helps us accomplish these important activities. News of IAPT activities can be found on our website. Please join IAPT and help us help our community.
New for 2023- IAPT has established a new discounted Postdoc membership category! If you are a postdoc please take advantage of this new discounted rate. Our goal is to keep postdocs engaged with IAPT as they seek permanent positions in the field. If you have a postdoc in your lab please consider sponsoring a membership.
Do you have a new graduate student? Why not give them a gift membership to IAPT for 2023? What better way to introduce and welcome new members of our community to the field, and to IAPT? Student memberships are just $15 USD. To sponsor a membership for your student or postdoc go to https://www.iaptglobal.org/shop-sponsorships. You may also sponsor memberships in any membership category. You may give a gift membership at the same time as renewing your own membership. Or if you have already renewed you can do the sponsorship separately.
If you are not yet an IAPT member I encourage you to join me as a member to support IAPT in serving the global plant systematics community. Please join now for 2023.
Some Instructions: Select the membership category that you wish to purchase and click “Add to Cart”. You may then select “add another membership” for example to add a spouse/partner, or select Sponsor a member”. After selecting the membership(s) that you wish to purchase click “pay now” or if you wish to use PayPal you may select that payment option here. After selecting Pay Now you will be presented with three payment options (credit card, PayPal, or manual). Select the one you wish to use and make your payment. Need help? Just ask! We will make it happen.
Important: After you have paid a confirmation page will direct you to a document with instructions for completing the final step. You should also receive this as an email message. Please follow the link to the document and enter your details to complete your sponsorship and/or membership renewal.
With best wishes for 2023.

IAPT President
