"Communications" is the Quarterly Newsletter of the ABRF
Communications is a quarterly association newsletter that provides a means of communications (hence the choice of title) amongst the members of the ABRF community. The Communications newsletter is a way to share member news and highlights, association activities and initiatives, international news, lab tips and protocols, issues involved in running a biomolecular resource…and much more! We hope our members find it a useful forum to share their experiences and encourage everyone to submit their thoughts and insights!
Please send any and all future submissions and ideas to either abrf@abrf.org or michelle.detwiler@roswellpark.org!
We hope you enjoy Communications…By the Members, For the Members!”
