<div>Have you discovered an interesting new technique or material that would be useful in fossil preparation, or have you explored a technique or material that didn't work? How about doing a case study on a preparation or collections project? Have you made
a change in your technique that has made a difference in your preparation? Please share your results with us, by sharing what we learn in our individual labs, we can all learn and improve the practice of preparation. </div>

<div>What is AMMP? AMMP is a non-profit organization of persons interested in the field of paleontological collections care and methodology. This includes conservation, preparation, sampling, and collection of fossil animal remains. AMMP was born out of a
need to link professionals, volunteers, and amateurs in the pursuit of providing resources and a venue to discuss treatment of paleontological specimens. The annual meeting began in 2008 under the title Fossil Preparation & Collections Symposium. The growing
attendance of successive meetings mandated the incorporation of the Association.</div>
