Publications

BIOS QUARTERLY served for many years as the ASPB’s official magazine for communication with our members and the public. Originally printed quarterly, and later published both in print and online, it provided a forum for members to share their experiences and academic expertise.

In 2022, the QUARTERLY was rolled together with the long-standing twice-monthly e-newsletter, under the name ALBERTA BIOLOGISTS' BIWEEKLY, to enable more timely delivery of news and information to our professional registrants. Recent copies of the BIWEEKLY can be downloaded from the ASPB Website Home Page.
