Opportunity to Obtain Back Issues of American Zoologist for Cost of
Shipping and Handling
In an effort to reduce member costs and fees still further, the SICB Business Office
has been scrutinizing SICB expenses. One surprisingly large and ongoing expense has been
the cost of renting space for storage of back issues of the American Zoologist.
Last year the Business Office decided to reduce this cost in three phases. First, excess
back issues were offered for sale at a greatly reduced price. Now we are announcing that
remaining back issues are available for the cost of shipping and handling. After this
phase ends, all remaining back issues will be recycled. To obtain back issues for the cost
of shipping and handling, please click here or contact the
Business Office at 800/955-1236.

Proposals are reviewed at SICB Annual Meetings, with $1,000 being the maximum award for
any single grant.
Student Support Program
The Student Support program enables many of SICB's graduate student members to attend SICB
Annual Meetings by assisting them with their lodging and registration expenses. As a

during some of the sessions.
Libbie H. Hyman Memorial Scholarship Fund
This scholarship fund was established by the Division of Invertebrate Zoology in memory of
Dr. Libbie H. Hyman and provides assistance for students to participate in courses or to
conduct research at a marine, terrestrial or freshwater field station. The grant is meant
to enable a first experience for a student who may be an advanced undergraduate or
beginning graduate student.
George A. Bartholomew Fund
SICB's Division of Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry awards an outstanding young
investigator in that field with this fund. The winner of this award presents a special
session at the SICB Annual Meeting.
D. Dwight Davis Fund
Donations to this fund support the Division of Vertebrate Morphology's Davis prize. This
award is presented to the best student oral contributed paper for this division at the
SICB Annual Meeting.
John A. Moore Lectureship Fund
Named in honor of John A. Moore, the creator of the Science as a Way of Knowing (SAAWOK)

Submit Your Manuscripts to Experimental Biology Online
Experimental Biology Online (EBO) is a multimedia electronic journal sponsored by three
societies with a membership of over 6,000 scientists worldwide: SICB, Society for
Experimental Biology, and the Australian and New Zealand Society for Comparative
Physiology and Biochemistry. The journal specializes in short, topical research papers on
experimental biology in its broadest sense, ranging from the molecular and cellular
boundaries to the integrative study of whole organisms, including the experimental
analysis of behavior.
All papers are submitted and peer-reviewed electronically either via e-mail or
anonymous FTP server. This usage of the Internet at every step of the reviewing process
leads to exceedingly short publication times of only a few weeks.
Take a closer look at the journal. Visit EBO at http://science.springer.de/ebo/ebo-main.htm
or http://link.springer-ny.com. If you think you
may have a slow connection, please access EBO at http://link.springer-ny.com/link/service/journals/00898/index.htm.
