Using 1991-92 academic year figures, the Summary Report 1992: Doctorate Recipients from United States Universities (Washington, D.C., National Academy Press, 1993) declared UC-Davis the national leader in awarding doctoral degrees in the biological sciences, with 126. Rounding out the top five in this category were the University of Wisconsin, Madison (120); the University of California, Berkeley (94); Yale University (82); and the University of Minnesota (79).

The Society for Chaos Theory in Psychology and the Life Sciences is calling for abstracts of papers, posters, and session proposals for its next annual conference, to be held June 24-27 at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. The society brings together researchers and practitioners interested in applying dynamical systems theory, self- organization theory, neural nets, fractals, and other forms of chaos and complexity theory ...
