Austin March 28, 2005. Some of our members have expressed their intention to update information about various items such as change of job, email address, new publications etc or add something which they may have missed in their previous communication to the forum. 
We have great pleasure in informing such members and those who would join us in the future that by filling in online participation form they can replace the older information. However, they need to provide all information including those which were provided  earlier. What is amazing of the new arrangement is that as soon as one clicks the submit button, it is automatically uploaded and listed in an alphabetical order in the section, "Member's profile" without any human intervention. One could retrieve important information also immediately about the new participant using search scientist box on the home page.

They were: Ziban Chandra Das, an MS in Theriogenology, Department of Surgery and Obstetrics, Bangladesh Agricultural University and Dr.  Sagir U. Ahmed,  an MS in Veterinary Public Health and Food Hygiene and a PhD in Agricultural Extension and Rural Development. While Mr. Das is currently doing PhD in Developmental Biotechnology at Konkuk University, Seoul, South Korea, Dr Sagir Ahmed is a Free Lance Consultant in Poultry and Livestock Biotechnology extension.  Earlier the Forum welcomed three members:  Dr. Abu Naser, currently a postdoctoral Fellow in the Dept. of Chemistry, Heriot-Watt University, Scotland from where he did his Ph.D. as well as MS in bioinformatics, Mr. Md. Musarraf Hussain, an M. Pharm from the Faculty of Pharmacy, DU. GNOBB welcome them heartily and expect them to enrich this web-based organization with their valuable contributions.

Recent weeks  witnessed more  members joining the Forum. They were: Ziban Chandra Das, an MS in Theriogenology, Department of Surgery and Obstetrics, Bangladesh Agricultural University and Dr.  Sagir U.

Other recent members are:                 SM Mahbubur Rashid and Mustak  bin Ayub.  Both of them are  MS students studying in the Dept. of  Genetic Engineering  and Biotechnology (GEB), Dhaka University.  Mustak is a prolific writer and has already published four books in Bengali in genetic Engineering and related areas.   Adequately illustrated, all the books explain so lucidly a difficult area of molecular biology such as genetics engineering,  human cloning, GM crops etc. that a layman with hardly any genetic background may form a fairly good idea about the modern trend that is revolutionizing the human concept of biology. Earlier to join  were: Mr. Mahdi Moosa and Ms. Sabrina Elias. Both are M. Sc. Students studying in the Department of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology and the Department of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, respectively. While Mahdi is enriching GNOBB website summarizing recent articles in biotechnology, Ms Sabrina is regularly updating the GNOBB website. This is the minimum what the Forum can offer  by offering them membership before their graduation. Abdullah Al-Emran, an M. Sc. in Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology from DU has also become a member bringing the total member strength to 307.Earlier  Dr. Sujon Sarowar an M.Sc. from Rajshahi University, a Ph.D. from Korea University, Seoul and a post doctoral at KRIBB, Yonsei Univ, S. Korea, joined the forum; he is now a Postdoc Research Fellow, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. USA. His area of specialization is Molecular Plant-Pathogen Interaction. During middle of june  Mr. Md.  Asaduzzaman, an assistant professor in the Institute of Statistical  Research and Training, D.U joined GNOBB forum.  He is currently a Ph.D. student at the University of Westminster, London, UK. Earlier he did  M.Sc. in Bioinformatics from Chalmers University of Technology.  He has specialization in Statistics, and Computational Biology.  Earlier four members enrolled themselves as GNOBB members. They are: Imtiaj  Hasan, Farzana Islam  Rume, Samir  Debnath, Md. Rashedul  Islam. The last week of April witnessed two  more members in the Forum. They are:Dr. M.

In the first  half of April the members who joined the Forum were Ms. Zannatul Ferdous, an MS in Biochemistry and Mol. Biol. from DU and also an MS in Molecular genetics, University of Leicester, UK; Mr. Kanchan Chakma,  an MS in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Chittagong  and Ms. Nazlee Sharmin, an M.S. in Biochemistry and Mol. Biol. (results to be published soon) from DU. While Mr Chakma is working as a scientific officer in the  Tissue Banking and Biomaterial Research Unit, Atomic Energy Research Establishment, Savar, Ms Nazlee Sharmin has joined BRAC University in its Life Science Faculty.  Earlier three more new members joined the forum. They were:  Dr. Aminul Haque, Mr Pollob Shil and Syed Murtuza Baker.   Dr. Amin has two Ph.D.s,  one  in Botany from Rajshahi University and  the other  in Agricultural Sciences from the United Graduate School of Kagoshima , Japan. Dr. Amin is currently a professor in Rajshahi University at the Dept of Agronomy,  University of Rajshahi.   Mr. Pollob  Shil is doing Ph.D. in the University of Melbourne, Australia in Veterinary Microbiology (Avian Mycoplasmosis) and Syed Murtuza Baker, an M.Sc. in  Information Technology, DU  is Lecturer in Computer Science and Engineering at East West University.
