biomedical/biological sciences?

[crazypumpkin]

I'm new here, so I might be missing something obvious, but is there an area for biomedical/biological science programs? I've applied for umbrella programs that include Microbiology.

Thanks,

I would post in the Medical forum. That's about the closest thing.

no clue... do you think the life sciences need their own listing like physical science and applied science already have?

[Minnesotan]

It's the first time anyone has been bold enough to inquire.

Are there more of you folks lurking about?

[crazypumpkin]

I would guess yes, that we need our own listing. Because life sciences definitely doesn't fall under physical science (generally chemistry and physics), and if you go by the wikipedia definition of applied science it doesn't fit there either.

So I'd lobby for a new listing, but I don't know how many of us are actually here.

Fair enough. I'll submit your worthy petition at the feet of one of the global moderators (read: the people with real power around here).

Or I'll just wait for Brittypoo to see your comment.

I can't sort out how to do it. I'll message bgk and see if he can.
