* * * * INVITATION TO GREEK BIOLOGICAL SCIENTISTS * * * *
The Institute of Biology of the National Research Center Demokritos in
Athens, Greece, is interested in compiling a list of Greek research
scientists working in diverse fields of life sciences who might be
interested in future staff openings at the Institute. The information
will be used to formulate the expansion policy of the Institute.
Please send brief memo including name, addresses (postal mail, e-mail,
telefax, telephone), present affiliation and research area. A list of
publications will be helpful.
A rough sketch of research areas in the Institute of Biology includes,
but it is not limited to, the following:
BASIC BIOSCIENCE
Mammalian gene expression; cytokines and oncogenes; human serum growth
factors; cell regulation mechanisms; opioid peptides and receptors;
transmembrane signals; lectines; photosynthesis (function, regulation,
biogenesis); developmental theoretical biology.
APPLIED BIOSCIENCE
Environmental genotoxicity; radiation induced mutations; primary sea
productivity and phytoplanckton; chemical communication of insects
(feromones); management of insect populations; insect ecophysiology;
insect nutrition; soil microbiology; uptake of radioactive nuclides by
plants.
Please disseminate this information to other interested scientists you
may know.
Thank you.
