Dear Colleague, I am conducting a webioner (i.e. Web based Questionnaire) with the aim of capturing recognized researchers and educators views regarding bioinformatics education in academia. The information you input will help me to devise a robust core bioinformatics curriculum for the School of Computer Science and IT at the University of Nottingham. More specifically, this poll is aimed at trying to understand your perceptions of what should be included (and what left out) in core bioinformatics and auxiliary modules, what skills must be developed in both teachers and learners, etc. I would very much appreciate your input as part of my information gathering efforts. The webioner can be found in: http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/~nxk/POLL2/natWebioner.html Thanks in advance for your time and for sharing your expertise. Yours, Dr. N.Krasnogor Lecturer School of Computer Science and Information Technology University of Nottingham United Kingdom. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NATALIO KRASNOGOR, Ph.D. Automated Scheduling, Planning and Optimisation Group Lecturer School of Computer Sciences and Information Technology Jubilee Campus University of Nottingham Tel.: +44 - 0115 - 8467592 Nottingham, NG81BB United Kingdom URL: http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/~nxk/ e-mail: Natalio.Krasnogor-replace all this by at symbol-nottingham.ac.uk ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We have recently published a book on Fuzzy Sets, details at http://www.springer-ny.com/detail.tpl?isbn=354000551X
