Message from the President

The Caribbean division welcomes you to our web page. This year we are devoted to reach out to our members. We are eager to know you and to invite you to share the excitement of science in our communities. There is no doubt that our division is diverse. From Mexico to Venezuela, from Jamaica to Trinidad. This makes us richer. 

As our division approaches its 23 year we want to recognize the strength of our science. We will host a scientific meeting in October 20, 2007, at Inter American University of Puerto Rico in Bayamón, Puerto Rico. As usual we welcome your participation. We urge graduate students from our region to submit abstracts for presentations that will compete for the Robert Laurus Award which includes the opportunity to represent the region in the Annual AAAS  meeting.

We also want to invite the general public to visit this website and find the resources that are available to you. Our members are committed to bring science to the communities, to spread scientific knowledge because knowledge is power, power to be able to influence decisions, power to take the reigns of societal destiny. We hope you may contact us to let us serve you. This is our mission.

Margarita Irizarry Ramírez

President
