AP-LS Email List

The AP-LS e-mail address list will be open to AP-LS members for research purposes only.  Research purposes include solicitations for participation in a research project, Calls for Papers, and information about workshops and conferences. This mailing list will not be available for any solely commercial or for-profit venture. Only AP-LS Members and Student Members are eligible to request an electronic mailing.  The text of all emails must be prepared by the Member, but will be mailed by the Web Site Editor (to prevent duplication or unauthorized release of the e-mail list).

Solicitations for Participation
    All emails must have a subject header indicating "Request for participation in a research project." The text of the email must describe the purpose of the research and an explanation of whom to contact for answers to pertinent questions about the research and research subjects' rights. All proposals for research must be approved by an Institutional Review Board prior to release of the mailing list.  A copy of the IRB approval must be submitted to the Web Site Editor before the solicitation will be sent.
    Members cannot request mailings more than once per year. There is a $150 fee for usage. Funds generated from this mailing list will be used to supplement student travel awards at the AP-LS conference and/or support activities of the Student Section.

Calls for Papers
    Calls for Papers for submissions to academic journals or conferences may be sent to the AP-LS Email List at the request of an AP-LS Member.

Conference Information
    Information about workshops and conferences may be sent to the AP-LS Email List at the request of an AP-LS Member, but only if the workshop or conference is sponsored by AP-LS or affiliated organizations such as AAFP.

Please contact the AP-LS Web Site Editor for permission to use the AP-LS Email List.
