Our thoughts and heartfelt condolences go out to Dr. Meixner's family, friends, colleagues, and students. We invite the community to honor Tom by sharing their memories, thoughts, and condolences on this message
Project EDDIE is proud to announce a new article in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, entitled Pedagogy of teaching with large datasets: Designing and implementing effective data-based activities . In addition, registration is open for two Project EDDIE events, taking place online this December. Check out these opportunities!
