be done in all parts of the course described above.2 CI Demonstration to Current Scientists Through Collaborative Research and TrainingThe Virginia Bioinformatics Institute (VBI) serves as the Bioinformatics and GenomicsResearch Core (BGRC) for the Mid-Atlantic Regional Center Excellence (MARCE) to supportcountermeasure development research. The BGRC includes VBI’s Core Computational Facility(CCF), Core Computational Facility (CCF), and Cyberinfrastructure Group (CIG). The CLFprovides services in generation of high-throughput data (HTD) in genomics, transcriptomics andproteomics. The CCF provides a unique bioinformatics computational platform with powerfulcomputers, support databases, applications, data storage and backup. The CIG has
finalizing a new textbook entitled Chronobioengineering as well as developing a program to investigate the impact of light and circadian manipulations on immune function in an animal model of AIDS. In addition to his work at Drexel, Dr. McEachron serves as Chair of the Engineering in Biology and Medicine Society, Philadelphia Chapter, IEEE Philadelphia section. In 2005, Dr. McEachron was trained as an IDEAL Scholar in assessment practices by ABET, Inc.Fran Cornelius, Drexel University Frances H.

instructors that the book is essential. Also, thank you very much for saving me the expense of buying a text for one of my classes. It helped tremendously. (K) I did enjoy the book and found it useful. (L) No answer given (M) The primary benefit of this book was the cost itself. But even without having to pay for it, it was not lacking in detail as one might expect from a free textbook N) Appreciate the use of this E-book (O) the textbook was very good over all. It could have used more examples of the calculations and more descriptions of where the information came from. (P) Add an index. (Q) No answer givenReferences1.
