Did you know that you can join the National Postdoctoral Association for free? 

Because ASU is a Sustaining Member of the NPA, postdocs, faculty, and staff at ASU are eligible for free Affiliate memberships. As a member you have opportunities to network with individuals in the postdoc community and gain access to members-only resources, such as the NPA Institutional Policy Database and myPostdoc Monthly, a webinar offering support to postdocs.
