Greetings from AMLE,
As the year comes to an end, AMLE wishes to extend festive season greetings, or if you don't celebrate Christmas, an enjoyable holiday. At the same time, it's time for another newsflash, so I am delighted to share a few news items from the AMLE deck that might be of interest to colleagues across disciplines, so I hope you can bear with me that this information is shared across AOM email list-servers. Let me get straight into it:
