AMWA history project

Calling all history buffs! AMWA is embarking on an exciting new project that will help trace our history since the group started as the Mississippi Valley Medical Editors' Association in 1940. The idea? To chronicle the organization's evolution and the development of medical communication as a profession through the stories and experiences of AMWA members. How can you help? We want to hear your stories! At this year's annual conference in Dallas, we invite you to reflect on your experiences in AMWA and complete the flier found in your tote bag. If you're willing to be audiotaped at the conference or at a later date via the telephone, contact Melanie Fridl Ross at mross@ufl.edu. And if you are interested in volunteering to participate on AMWA's History Task Force in the future, let us know. This project isn't just for ourselves, but for future generations. Be a part of it!
