e-newsletters to Members (Nut-Soc-Nat-News)

Dr David Woodward,
Newsletter Editor

 Assistant Editor:  Dr Natalie Sinn

The e-newsletter is usually emailed to members once a week, on Monday or Tuesday, though it may sometimes be less frequent.

Please send items for the newsletter and website to David Woodward.  Deadline for material is the Thursday preceding publication.

News of NSA activities has priority.  Other items (non-NSA events, jobs, nutrition-related news) are welcome and will be included where space allows. Inclusion is usually free, but a moderate charge may be made for promoting events run by for-profit organsiations. All items are edited to match “house style” and space – preferred length is 100-150 words. We do NOT include attachments to the emailed newsletter.

Where appropriate, material will also be placed on the website.
