Membership Information

The ISPNE maintains a membership of active members throughout the world. Although a majority of members are from North America and Europe, there is representation from most world regions. Regular members can chose to receive the official journal of the Society, Psychoneuroendocrinology published by Elsevier. The journal is also available throughout the world at some 600 subscribing institutions and libraries.

The Society membership is approximately evenly divided between basic research scientists holding the PhD or equivalent degree and clinical researchers holding the MD or equivalent degree; this division is reflected by the scientific content of both the Journal and the Annual Congress proceedings. In the years since the inception of the society, annual meetings have been held every year, except for 1989 and 2010.

Membership in the Society is open to those professionals meeting criteria as set forth in the bylaws.
