Biochemisty and Molecular Biology Education

 
Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education (BAMBED) is a journal published by Wiley on behalf of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. The journal is linked to the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.

BAMBED publishes papers about education and education issues. The Editors-in-Chief are Donald Voet and Judith Voet. I happen to be on the editorial board and that's why I'm blogging about this journal. More people need to know about it.

Here are some of the articles in this month's issue to give you an idea of the sorts of things that educators are concerned about.
