Benefit #1: Subscription to the Journal of AAS
Your membership includes a subscription to the AAS Journal that is published quarterly and provides scientific information about apitherapy. This is sent via e-mail as a PDF document, which you can open and print or save.  In addition, you have the option, for an additional fee, of receiving the Journal in the mail as a hard copy.  You are given this option when you join and renew your membership. The Journal is a publication for members of the AAS only. The Journal is not available on newsstands and you must be a current member to receive it. The Journal of the AAS has information provided by members and by the scientific community on a wide variety of conditions and diseases. It also includes testimonials, editorials, and activities of AAS and its members. This Journal provides a unique service to AAS members, who come from both the United States and many other countries.

Log in to the Members Only Section of the AAS website for articles from past AAS Journals, for the current Journals, as well as for material from previous courses and conferences. This section of the website cannot be accessed by the general public. When you join AAS, you receive the log-in information, and can retrieve it on the web if necessary.
