Sun Computational Biology SIG Newsletter - September 15, 2003

Sun Education & Research free news service: Sun EduConnection

A free news service from Sun Education & Research, called the Sun EduConnection program is being initiated in September. It will be monthly and will supplant the Campus Advisor newsletter. Important messages on Sun events, corporate initiatives, and directions of the Global Education and Research group will be conveyed in these EZines. Topics will be of broader interest than the focused Computational Biology content you receive in this CB-SIG newsletter.

The sign-in URL is http://www.sun.com/edu/optin

Benefits of the program include:

• An e-mail newsletter containing articles on trends in education, best practices, and solution case studies.
• NetTalks - web-based broadcasts featuring experts from Sun and the education community, discussing new technologies and solutions.
• Expert Exchanges - real-time online chats with technical expertsfrom Sun, providing customers with an opportunity to "drill down" in more detail on a given subject.
• Plus special offers, events, and more!
