Heritage:
The Society of Nematologists was organized in 1961. Since its inception,
programs have been initiated in accordance with society goals. The first
national

held each year in the U.S. or Canada. In 1969 the Society of Nematologists
began publishing the Journal
of Nematology, the official journal of the society. To recognize
outstanding individual accomplishments in the field of nematology, Honorary
Member and Best Student

has endeavored to meet the needs of individuals in academic institutions,
research, governmental agencies and industry for over 20 years and will
continue in this pursuit.
