Description
Bringing Advanced Computational Techniques to Environmental Research (BACTER) offers a new paradigm for computational biology research and education. BACTER will engage students in project oriented computational biology from the outset of their graduate studies. The research will focus on two model organisms, Rhodobacter sphaeroides and Shewanella oneidensis, which are key to DOE Genomics: GTL program goals in bioremediation and energy production. Our objective is to train students to uncover biological mechanisms and pathways within these organisms using computational biology and synergistic collaboration with experimental groups.
Environmental Microbiology is devoted to the study of microbial processes in the environment, microbial communities and microbial interactions.

The Journal of Bacteriology, established in 1916, keeps pace with the times by advancing and disseminating fundamental knowledge of bacteria and other microorganisms. Articles report on developments in fast-moving areas, making the journal invaluable reading for busy researchers.
Applied and Environmental Microbiology publishes a substantial share of the most significant current research in the areas of biotechnology, microbial ecology, food microbiology, and industrial microbiology. Highlighting research findings applicable to the development of new processes or products, AEM is a broad-based journal that is indispensable to those whose basic work has implications of near-term practical benefit.
IS-MPMInet is the premier online resource for the most up-to-date information about the society and significant research on molecular genetics and molecular biology.
The University of York's Department of Biology Symbiosis Page.
Founded at Woods Hole, Massachusetts in April of 1997, the International Symbiosis Society is primarily involved with the promotion of research and education in the growing field of symbiosis. The Society seeks also to build ongoing and useful communication between the many researchers working in the various sub-fields of symbiosis, as well as connect symbiologists to those in other areas of ecology and biological sciences generally.

The goal of the Wisconsin Program for Scientific Teaching is to enhance undergraduate biology education by training a new generation of "scientific teachers" - faculty who bring the rigor & spirit of science research to teaching.
A guidebook to Teaching Student To Think Like Scientists: BBL is a unique guied for helping instructors promote active learning in the biolgy classroom.
