Introducing our Omics Blog Series

This time of year, new graduate students are flooding into the School and faculty are intensely working on their research projects while the teaching course load is somewhat lighter than during September through May.

While there are a variety of research areas and interests, the University of Michigan and the School of Dentistry have a committed interest in the research areas that have come to be known popularly as "Omics" (genomics, proteomics, nanotechnology, and related bioinformatics concepts).

In the interests of providing useful information for those working in these areas and those who would like to know more about what their colleagues might be doing, the Dentistry Library today begins a roughly two week series of blog entries on OMICS.

The entire collection of entries will be collected at this location, with more added periodically in the future:
