Creation and production of Research BioClips and Educational BioClips ... [Information of the supplier]
The Genetic Science Learning Center is an outreach education program located in the midst of bioscience research at the University of Utah. Our mission is to help people understand how genetics affects their lives and society. To achieve this mission, we present education offerings for various audiences, including: 1. This website, which delivers interactive and print-based resources, free of charge, to Internet users worldwide. The website has two main components: a.) Information and activities: These address standards for science education, and are accessible to all users from the homepage b.) Teacher Resources and Lesson Plans: These are accessible from the top right of any page. They include PDF-based Print-and-Go classroom activities and teacher guides for all materials. 2. Professional development programs that update K-12 teachers' expertise in bioscience topics. See our list of upcoming courses and workshops, accessible through the Resources and Lesson Plans section of this site. 3. Public education programs that highlight topics of current interest and research underway at the University of Utah. Our educational resources provide accurate and unbiased information about topics in genetics and bioscience. Designed for non-research audiences, our materials are interactive and jargon-free, target multiple learning styles, and often convey concepts through visual elements. Our newest materials are being developed with our Exploragraphic design methodology. Some topics in genetics and bioscience research are controversial. The Learning Center does not take sides in politically or ethically charged topics. Rather, our goal is to provide comprehensive information that promotes a lively discussion of these topics, so that individuals can arrive at their own informed decisions. ...

The section gives an overview of the DFG's various information services which provide up-to-date details on projects and programmes currently funded by the DFG. Clusters of Excellence will enable German university locations to establish internationally visible, competitive research and training facilities, thereby enhancing scientific networking and cooperation among the participating institutions. Graduate Schools play a key role not only in developing internationally competitive centres of top-level research and scientific excellence in Germany but also in increasing their recognition and prestige. DFG Research Centres: The primary objective of this programme is to establish a limited number of internationally visible and competitive research centres at German universities. Collaborative Research Centres are institutions established at universities for a period of up to 12 years that enable researchers to pursue an outstanding research programme, crossing the boundaries of disciplines, institutes, departments and faculties. They facilitate scientifically ambitious, complex, long-term research by concentrating and coordinating the resources available at a university. Research Training Groups are established by universities to promote young researchers that are funded by the DFG for a period of up to nine years. Their key emphasis is on the qualification of doctoral researchers within the framework of a focused research programme and a structured training strategy. A particular feature of the Priority Programme is the nationwide cooperation between its participating researchers. A Research Unit is made up of a team of researchers working together on a research project which, in terms of thematic focus, duration and finances, extends beyond the funding options available under the Individual Grants Programme or Priority Programme. Clinical Research Units provide outstanding researchers the opportunity to carry out close, medium-term cooperation in a special research project from the field of disease or patient-oriented clinical research. ...

The Science Environment for Ecological Knowledge (SEEK) is a five year initiative designed to create cyberinfrastructure for ecological, environmental, and biodiversity research and to educate the ecological community about ecoinformatics. SEEK participants are building an integrated data grid (EcoGrid) for accessing a wide variety of ecological and biodiversity data and analytical tools (Kepler) for efficiently utilizing these data stores to advance ecological and biodiversity science. An intelligent middleware system (SMS) will facilitate integration and synthesis of data and models within these systems. The three components of the SEEK cyberinfrasture are: (1) the EcoGrid, (2) a Semantic Mediation system, and (3) an Analysis and Modeling system. These infrastructure components will be built with input and participation from three SEEK working groups: (1) Knowledge Representation, (2) Biological Taxonomy and Classification, and (3) Biodiversity and Ecological Analysis and Modeling. ...

1923 wurde an der damaligen Landwirtschaftlichen Hochschule in Berlin-Dahlem ein Institut für Bienenkunde gegründet. Nach der Teilung Deutschlands und Berlins wurde das auf Westberliner Territorium gelegene Institut von der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (Ost) abgetrennt und der Technischen Universität Berlin (West) zugeordnet. 1952 baute die Humboldt-Universität als Ersatz in Hohen Neuendorf bei Berlin die Abteilung Bienenkunde und Seidenbau des Instituts für Geflügel- und Kleintierzucht auf. Bienenforschung und Bienenhaltung sind mit diesem Standort seitdem fest verbunden. 1970 wurde am Hohen Neuendorfer Standort die Forschungsstelle für Bienenwirtschaft gegründet. Nach Auflösung der Lehr- und Forschungsanstalt für Bienenzucht in Tälermühle (Thüringen) wurden Teile dieses Instituts nach Hohen Neuendorf verlagert und mit Teilen der Abteilung Bienenkunde vereinigt. 1992 erfolgte die Gründung des Länderinstituts für Bienenkunde Hohen Neuendorf durch das Agrarministerium des Landes Brandenburg. Es wird durch die Bundesländer Berlin, Brandenburg, Sachsen, Sachsen-Anhalt und Thüringen projektgebunden gefördert. Schwerpunktthemen: Züchtung gegen Varroatose, Honigforschung, Untersuchungen zur Bedeutung der Bienen als Umweltfaktor, Hochschullehre und imkerliche Beratung. ...
