MIT Postdocs: joining the National Postdoc Association; NPA newsletter

[Dana Bresee Keeth]

*Hello MIT Postdocs, we wanted to pass along particularly helpful 
information from the National Postdoctoral Association, along with a 
reminder of how to become a member:
*

*National Postdoctoral Association <http://www.nationalpostdoc.org/>**
*MIT is a Sustaining Member and as such, any postdoc affiliated with MIT 
may join the NPA for free as an affiliate member. Affiliate members are 
entitled to free subscriptions and access to members-only web content. 
*You must have a MIT email to join. *
