 TO OUR READERS: WE NEED YOUR FEEDBACK:

	Complexity Digest was founded in 1999 to promote networking of the complexity
community by using the Internet to link to electronic publications related to
Complexity. And we may have contributed to its present status where complexity,
multi-disciplinary, dynamic studies are accepted parts of any academic field and
are used to solve problems....although often with a different lexicon.

Are we serving our market...you, the readers? In bringing webcasts to you of
meetings we cannot all attend, does that help you? Are we pointing out
literature that you want to explore more thoroughly?

And most important to those of us who work each week to bring ComDig to you,
what should we be doing now to strengthen the Complexity network?

You can help by participating in this short survey......thanks.

Excerpts: But it is hard to find scientists who are trained and interested in
both biology and engineering to fuel the development of this new science. So,
like true engineers, the founding synthetic biologists are trying to build their
future colleagues from the ground up. To do so, they have commandeered a
time-honoured engineering tradition: the student competition. The iGEM event
began life as a project class for MIT students in 2003. Last year, it was thrown
open to other US universities, and this year it went international.
