Author: SIMON SILVER Department of Microbiology & Immunology University of Illinois Chicago Discovering six new vitamins in a single metabolic pathway is unprecedented, but then, neither methanogenesis nor Ralph Wolfe is standard. The metabolic pathway for converting CO2 to CH2, which is unique to the methanogenic archaebacteria, has shown that there is novel microbiology and metabolic biochemistry work yet to do. A.A. DiMarco, T.A. Bobik, R.S. Wolfe, "Unusual coenzymes of methanogenesis,"

Editor's Note: The newsletter Science Watch, published by the Philadelphia-based Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), last year decided to devote more attention to a research arena that, clearly, was attracting more attention among scientists worldwide: ecology and environmental science. After analyzing ISI's Science Indicators Database, the newsletter published last November (Science Watch, 4[9]:7-8, 1993) its first-ever l
Broadening Applicability Fosters Growth In Microbiology's Current Job Market

Life scientists are increasingly adopting the belief that microorganisms are virtually everywhere and are responsible for just about everything. This, plus the maturation of molecular- level methods of working with these tiny creatures, is a source of considerable optimism for microbiologists as the 93rd general meeting of the American Society for Microbiology (ASM) convenes in Atlanta this week. What they see, in career terms, is that progress in their field is bound to yield an ever-widening
Interdisciplinary Research

Isn't it ironic that the biology scientists receiving MacArthur fellowships [K.Y. Kreeger, The Scientist, Sept. 2, 1996, page 1; T.W. Durso, The Scientist, Sept. 2, 1996, page 3] are interested in broadening their studies to areas combining disciplines while university administrations are subdividing disciplines? My own university (the University of Arizona) has subdivided the old biological sciences into (1) ecology and evolutionary biology; (2) microbiology and immunology; and (3) molecular

Department of Microbiology & Immunology University of Illinois Chicago Cosy, Noesy, and HoHaHa! Respectively, these are abbreviations for two-dimensional scalar correlated spectroscopy, two-dimensional nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy, and Homonuclear Hartmann Hahn transfer experiment - three of the techniques used to study Megasphaera elsdenii. Apparently, we need to learn well the general rules for two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) determination of atomic conne

Leonard Hayflick has been unafraid to speak his mind, whether it is to upend a well-entrenched dogma or to challenge the federal government. At 86, he’s nowhere near retirement.
