Life Science information BIORESEARCH INDEXfrom BIOSIS, naturally. BIORESEARCH INDEX is a monthly publication containing full bibliographic citations to original research reports. It offers the same type of in-depth, multiple indexing that is provided for articles abstracted in BIOLOGICAL ABSTRACTS. Its added dimension is more timely and complete reporting of research information from the following sources than ever before. • Annual Institutional reports • Bibliographies, Reviews • Letters, Notes
• Preliminary reports • Selected government reports • Semi-popular journals • Symposia • Trade journals More than 100,000 articles are reported annually in BIORESEARCH INDEX. Each issue contains the following: • A list of the publications indexed, including abbreviated title and issue covered. • Bibliography—each citation listed includes the journal source, volume and issue numbers, date, pagination, author(s) and title. • BIOSIS' complement of indexes; Author, Biosystematic, CROSS and Subject (B.A.S.I.C), color-coded and keyed to the bibliography. Every citation receives at least one entry in each index and a total of 19 index entries on the average. These provide the researcher with convenience and flexibility in locating the precise information he requires. A special price is offered non-profit organizations for combined annual subscriptions to BIORESEARCH INDEX and BIOLOGICAL ABSTRACTS. To obtain complete information, write or call:

of the appointee's choice or a summer's study and research. The fellowships are open to all applicants who have completed at least one year of graduate study and are currently full-time students working toward a PhD degree. Selection is made on the basis of the applicant's academic record, a statement of educational objectives, a nominating letter from the applicant's research adviser, two letters of recommendation, and a description of the research plan proposed for the fellowship. Application blanks may be obtained from W. W. Meinke, Secretary-Treasurer, Analytical Chemistry Division, National Bureau of Standards, Washington, D.C. 20234. Applications must be returned to Dr. Meinke before February 25, 1972. Announcements of the winners will be made in April.
