As fascinating as diversity is, it''s not the sort of thing that computational scientists usually get excited about. Uncovering how diversity came to be has captured the attention of a team of researchers at Alliance partner University of New Mexico and the University of Texas, though. Using the 512-processor LosLobos Linux Pentium III supercomputing cluster at the Albuquerque High Performance Computing Center, the team has created a phylogeny reconstruction - or evolutionary history - of 12 bluebell species, predicting all of the steps that take these species back to a single common ancestor. To meet the challenge, they created a whole new piece of software known as GRAPPA. GRAPPA is is free software available as a gzipped tar file containing all source files needed to compile an executable version.

Goal of Behavioral Neuroscience Program is to provide student with broad and deep knowledge of physiological and biological factors that control and affect behavior. Through close and personalized student mentor relationship we try to instill in student appreciation for programmatic problem oriented, rather than technique oriented, research. Program provides training toward the PhD for approximately 20 students at time. All students are expected to master core of theoretical and research methods, as well as to become skilled in conduct of their own research. In addition, students tailor their education to fit their own interests and professional goals through selection of appropriate elective courses and research projects.

The Eurofung project is a Coordination Action with the aim of developing a strategy to build up and maintain an integrated, sustainable European genomic database required for innovative genomics research of filamentous fungal model organisms of interest. This database will become a crystallization point for related systems and then could be integrated and conserved in a central European genomic database. The consortium counts 32 member laboratories, three of which have partner status. A Fungal Industrial Platform (FIP) of 13 members is also associated with the project. The project focuses on several filamentous fungi for different reasons. Aspergillus nidulans has a long record of use as a fungal model organism. Aspergillus niger, Trichoderma reesei and Penicillium chrysogenum are important cell factories used for the production of enzymes and metabolites including compounds such as Beta-lactams with benefits to human health. The human pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus serves not only as a model pathogen, but becomes more and more a serious threat to human health. The project contributes to create the conditions and facilities within Europe to widely apply all genomics technologies in filamentous fungal research. This will greatly expand our knowledge about filamentous fungi. This new genomics information will thus be beneficial to European biotechnology industries and help to improve the prevention and treatment of fungal disease. Expected results: The main results expected from this project are: - The contribution of the community to the manual annotation of important fungal genomes through annotation jamborees. - The realization of an integrated sustainable fungal genomic database through collaboration with bioinformatics centers and incorporation of the community data. - The realization of a fungal genomics knowledge base for the Eurofungbase community and the European fungal biotech industry through meetings, workshops and web-based information. - Intensified collaboration between the members of the network including the participating industries, thus strengthening the infrastructure for high quality fungal genomics research in Europe and furthermore determining joint research targets for the future. -Individualized training of a next generation of young scientists in fungal genomics and biotechnological research.

http://neurotree.org/neurotree/

An academic genealogy platform that collects information about graduate students and posdoctoral research connections. The Neuroscience Academic Family Tree is a free, volunteer-run website designed to help you track your academic genealogy. Our goal is to collect information about the graduate student and postdoctoral connections between most researchers in the field. :How do I navigate the tree? :There are several ways to wander around Neurotree. The basics are summed up in the commands at the top of each page: :* Tree - Jump to a random node on the tree :* Search - Search for a specific person or people at a specific institution :* Recent additions - List the most recent additions :* Distance - Trace the connection between two people in the tree :* Add person - Add a new person to the tree (and be a good citizen!). You must sign up for an account to make additions. :* Analysis - Learn more amazing facts about neurogenealogy! ... and possibly something about the field of neuroscience.

http://www.bna.org.uk/

The British Neuroscience Association, formerly known as The Brain Research Association, was officially relaunched in 1997, continuing many of the traditions of the BRA but with a professional and revamped style. Membership has increased dramatically since this time, now standing at 2000, and the BNA has increasingly taken a leading role in major events, such as hosting the Second Forum of European Neuroscience in Brighton in June, 2000. The BNA is the largest body representing all aspects of neuroscience from ion channels to whole animal behaviour. The Aims and Objectives of the Association are as follows: 1. To promote on a multidisciplinary basis the study of the development structure and function of the nervous system in health and disease. 2. To promote the dissemination of information to all those interested in the neurosciences and related disciplines by means of lectures, discussions, meetings and reports from time to time obtained from such researchers. 3. To advise as far as possible on issues in neurosciences related to health and disease. 4. To endeavour to increase public awareness and understanding of neuroscience research in health and disease. 5. To assist in the training of neuroscientists and other professionals engaged in neuroscience teaching and research. The BNA achieves these aims as follows: 1. By hosting a national meeting biennially, by publishing the proceedings of that meeting and distributing them to the scientific community. 2. By organising a number of focussed ''One Day symposia'' during the year, contributing to training courses for young neuroscientists and organising public lectures and events . 3. By regularly distributing information by the BNA Newsletter or by the BNA News E-mail Alert facility that can inform members about other relevant events, publications and topical issues. 4. By encouraging attendance at its own national meeting and those to which it is affiliated by awarding bursaries to students and young postdoctoral workers, and facilitating participation in the Society for Neuroscience annual meeting by offering sponsored abstract forms. 5. By awarding graduate and undergraduate prizes, and special awards to senior neuroscientists and to lay people who have contributed significantly through their own charitable work to the success of our discipline. 6. By constantly negotiating special discount prices of relevant books and journals, and by offering free online access to the European Journal of Neuroscience.The BNA is the fastest growing learned society, now boasting more than 2000 members, a rise of more than 40% since its relaunch as the BNA in 1997 from the former Brain Research Association. In addition to discounted journals and books and other occasional ''special offers'', the benefits of membership now include the following: 1. Reduced registration fees (up to 50%) to the National Meeting, and FREE admission to many events throughout the year including ''One Day Symposia'' and The Christmas Symposium. 2. Regular mailing of BNA Bulletin and other relevant items. 3. Regular BNA and FENs Email Alert service. 4. Student prizes, and bursaries for attendance at BNA, FENS and IBRO meetings. 5. Free on-line access to European Journal of Neuroscience. 6. Concessionary (SFN membership rate) registration fees and sponsored abstract forms for Society for Neuroscience annual meeting. 7. Free advertising in the BNA Bulletin and on the BNA Website. 8. Free (automatic) membership of the Federation of European Neuroscience Societies (FENS), the International Brain Research Organisation (IBRO) and the Biosciences Federation (BSF). educational resource; jobs.
