DuPont Industrial Biosciences has several summer internship positions
for undergrads available. We are looking for driven and creative interns
to conduct research in the following areas:

· Enzyme immobilization supports for select enzyme systems.

· New tools for microbial strain and genome engineering using
state-of-the-art methodologies.

· Rapid high throughput assays to screen microorganisms from various
sources for enzymatic activities of interest.

· High throughput combinatorial approaches to the formulation of growth
media in support of microbial enrichments, strain isolations and growth
optimization.

· Meta-transcriptomics for the discovery of new enzymes.

· Strain adaptation techniques in defined chemostat environments for
microbial strain development.

The internships are based at the Experimental Station R&D Center in
Wilmington, DE.

Biologist versus computational biologist !

Claus-Peter Stelzer Lab

Mon, 15 Mar 2021 15:24:41 -0500

Interested in various topics at the intersection of ecology and evolution. In my research I use rotifers as model organisms for experimental studies at the individual and population level. Rotifers are ideally suited for this, because populations of thousands can be kept in small containers in the lab, while single individuals can still be handled conveniently.

PubMed opens for comment

Rahul Nayak — Thu, 24 Oct 2013 12:40:17 -0500

The informal conversations that researchers have at scientific meetings look set to move online, if a new initiative by the US National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) has its way. On 22 October, the NCBI of Bethesda, Maryland, launched the pilot phase of a programme called PubMed Commons. This will allow users to comment on published abstracts on the PubMed website, which indexes some 22 million papers.

For now, only a select group of researchers and their invited guests can use the system. But the NCBI's director David Lipman, who helped to develop the programme, says that soon any PubMed author will be allowed to comment under his or her real name and anyone will be able to read the comments.
