Teaching experimental design to biologists.
The teaching of research design and data analysis to our graduate students has been a persistent problem. A course is described in which students, early in their graduate training, obtain extensive practice in designing experiments and interpreting data. Lecture-discussions on the essentials of biostatistics are given, and then these essentials are repeatedly reviewed by illustrating their appl...
متن کاملNew genetic resources for mammalian developmental biologists
The utilization of homologous recombination in embryonic stem cells as a means to generate mice carrying pre-determined modifications of genomic sequences has revolutionized the study of developmental biology. Recognizing the potential efficiencies that can be obtained by high-throughput production at centralized technology centers, a number of large-scale efforts for generating mice with targe...
متن کاملTraining Experimental Biologists in Bioinformatics
Bioinformatics, for its very nature, is devoted to a set of targets that constantly evolve. Training is probably the best response to the constant need for the acquisition of bioinformatics skills. It is interesting to assess the effects of training in the different sets of researchers that make use of it. While training bench experimentalists in the life sciences, we have observed instances of...
متن کاملLeaving the lab: career development for developmental biologists.
Let's face it: not all PhD students and postdocs will become lab heads. Every few years, the National Science Foundation surveys doctorate recipients in the USA about their career progression, and their latest published data (collected in 2006) show that only about one quarter of biomedical science PhDs held tenured or tenure-track positions (see Box 1). If graduate and postdoctoral training ar...
متن کاملThe Hydra genome: insights, puzzles and opportunities for developmental biologists.
The sequencing of a Hydra genome marked the beginning of a new era in the use of Hydra as a developmental model. Analysis of the genome sequence has led to a number of interesting findings, has required revisiting of previous work, and most importantly presents new opportunities for understanding the developmental biology of Hydra. This review will de-scribe the history of the Hydra genome proj...
