2020 AAS Meeting - CANCELED

The American Arachnological Society and the 2020 AAS meeting hosts, Jason Bond and Joel Ledford, have made the very difficult decision to cancel the AAS meeting scheduled to be held at the University of California, Davis. It is our sincere hope that, in retrospect, canceling the meeting will seem like an overreaction, but we feel that at this time, given the concerns surrounding the coronavirus pandemic, this decision is in the best interests of the health and well-being of all the members of our Society.
