≫ Non-Student Member
Contact the YCCAJ office from the inquiry form. The office will contact you shortly. No yearly procedure is required since the membership will be updated automatically.≫ Student Member
Apply at the JSCC registration page. By applying as a student member of JSCC, you are automatically registered as an YCCAJ member. No extra payment for the annual fee for YCCAJ is necessary since it will be transferred from JSCC.
Notice!!- The student membership is not updated automatically and, therefore, you need to renew your membership annually. In that case, choose “student member (continued)” in the registration form.
- Basically use research group/laboratory as your contact information.
- Register the YCCAJ membership before a deadline of the annual JSCC conference if you apply the presentation/poster award of the conference.
