OPUS 12 Chapters - The Basics

• OPUS 12 Chapters are composed of highly motivated scientists from various disciplines who wish to join other individuals with similar interests locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally.
• Each Chapter is named after the city (i.e., Tulsa Chapter) or general geographic area (i.e., Lehigh Valley Chapter) in which its members reside.
• OPUS 12 Chapters can be established in several ways:
  • By an existing OPUS 12 member who wishes to establish a local chapter in the given area.
  • By a group of 2 or more highly motivated individuals who desire to join the OPUS 12 organization, in which case a proposal letter should be sent to the OPUS 12 Foundation President and/or Chairman.
  • By an appointment from OPUS 12 President and/or Chairman, provided that the apointed individual accepts and agrees to establish a local Chapter.
• Each OPUS 12 Chapter has a pre-determined structure, including President, Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer, all of which are elected officers.
• OPUS 12 Chapters meet yearly. At that time, research ideas are exchanged, new projects initiated, and scientific poster/oral exhibits are presented.
• Our membership fee schedule is listed on our online payment system. Except for special cases, all member dues payments are currently accepted via credit card only.
