Communications of the „Institut International 



d'EmbryoIogie" 



(Embryological Section of the I.U.B.S.) 



The I. I.E. announces with deep regret the death of its Emeritus Member 

 A. Weber (Geneve). 



The next General Assembly and International Congress will be held in 

 France in 1968. The tentative topic of the Congress is "Nucleo-cytoplasmic 

 interactions in development." Chairman of the Organizing Committee is Prof. 

 L. Gallien, Laboratoire d'EmbryoIogie, Fac. des Sci. de Paris, 9 Quai St. Ber- 

 nard, Paris 5e. He will supply details of the Congress on request, as soon as 

 these are available. 



The procedure for the application for membership and for the acceptance of 

 new members is as follows: 



a) Candidates for membership can be proposed by two members at any 

 time. The Board screens the applications once or twice a year, and decides 

 about acceptance by simple majority of votes among its members. 



b) The requirement for membership is that the candidate should have made 

 a substantial contribution to the field of developmental biology. The Board 

 decides whether a particular applicant meets this standard. 



c) Candidates should submit a curriculum vitae and a list of their public- 

 ations to Prof. P. D. Nieuwkoop, Hubrecht Laboratory, Uppsalalaan 1, Uni- 

 versiteitscentrum "De Uithof", Utrecht, Netherlands. 



The present composition of the Board and the latest membership list are to 

 be found in the "General Embryological Information Service", Supplement to 

 the 10th issue (1964).

 P. D. Nieuwkoop
