This is a discussion list concerning the topic of
Biomedical Ethics. Since the field of medicine and
medical technology are rapidly changing and the
field is so broad, it is difficult to have clearly
delineated rules as to what should and should not
be discussed. Possible topics for this list
might include: paternalism, fetal cell transplant,
the right to die, AIDS, suicide, patient autonomy,
abortion, drug legalization, euthanasia, respirator
withdrawal, transplants, allocation of scarce
resources and many others too numerous to list
here. The discussions may be ethical,
philosophical, religious, political, social or
even, in some cases, personal. Open discussion,
disagreement, and dissent is encouraged. Open
flames are most certainly NOT.

over 55
years of age - from a wide range of backgrounds,
but with a common purpose - a place where
knowledgeable people can reach others and where
anyone with questions can write for relevant
information.
Resources
Elder Centre
An Elder Centre is in the process of development on
a Unibase system at St Johns where anyone can
search the library, use as a post office, lecture
hall or chat area.
Gopher
A Resource Centre for elders is being developed on
a gopher where information on organisations,
agencies, etc. will be stored and retrieved. St.
Johns University is the home of a series of lists
devoted to education for everyone. An ever
increasing library has been built on many topics on
St Johns' gopher.

This list is intended to promote sharing of
information, experiences, concerns, and advice
about computers and health. Anecdotal evidence,
media reports, and some formal studies suggest that
computer users are at risk from misuse and overuse
of computers. Eyestrain, headache, carpal tunnel
syndrome, and other apparently computer-related
maladies are increasing. And it would appear that
many institutions have been slow to respond with
education, training, office and lab design, etc.

CMTS-L, Chemical Management and Tracking Systems,
is a discussion group focused on the formation of a
chemical management and tracking system at Cornell
University. CMTS- L will also act as a forum at the
international level for the exchange of ideas
concerning the efforts at various eudcational and
commercial organizations engaged in the establishment
of chemical management and tracking systems.
There are many of us attempting to design,
fund and
implement chemical inventory and tracking systems,
waste management systems, chemical
recycling/exchange lists and other applications of
computers to chemical management. The idea for
this new list arose during the 11th Annual College
Hazardous Waste Conference held at Stanford last
month. It was apparent that many individuals at
numerous institutions were working on various
aspects of this problem, along with the regulatory
problems associated with research scale use of
chemicals and the resulting chemical waste at
educational and research institutions.
Hopefully, this list will allow us to
work together
to solve some common problems associated with the
large scale introduction of computerized chemical
management systems. Any information or threads of
conversations related to the topics described above
are acceptable for posting to CMTS-L.

Name: POP-BIO
Description:
Population Biology is a synthesis of population
ecology and population genetics, pursuing a unified
theory to explain the structure, functioning and
evolution of populations of living beings. Such
populations are very complex systems, exhibiting a
variety of phenomena that we still do not master.
Just to quote a famous example, multiannual density
cycles (e.g. in lemmings) have not received a
satisfactory explanation, despite decades of
debated studies and speculations. Population
Biology is a very active field, encompassing such
diverse approaches as tenacious, harsh field work
to track long term demographic and genetic
fluctuations, or sophisticated conversations with a
computer about strange attractors possibly causing
chaos in the density fluctuations.
Topics that can be discussed include:
ecology,
population genetics, systematics, evolution,
morphometry, interspecific competition,
sociobiology, mathematical modelling, population
regulation, pest control, chromosomal evolution,
social behavior, statistical methodology in
population study, population management of
endangered species, applications of molecular
biology techniques, etc., and, last but not least,
your own topic. There is no restriction on the
species: viruses, protokaryotes, plants, animals
(including man), mythic or extinct species,
computer-simulated species... Technical problems,
book reviews, meeting announcements and so on are
also welcome.

hospitalization data, health status measures,
program participation, congenital malformations
registry data, and data on maternal risk factors.
National and other-level data may also be
pertinent. This listserv is one of the products
resulting from a RWJ Foundation-funded project to
improve health data for policy making. It was
developed as one way to make health data resources
more accessible to the health policy and research
community. Many of the have been involved in this
project and advised on ways to improve maternal and
infant data. Contributors will make some summary
tables available, will notify members of new
reports or studies that they feel will be of
interest, and will report on other data initiatives
in which they are involved or know about.

This list is mainly about the nature of psi; if
you're interested in debating whether psi exists,
this isn't the place to do it. We're interested in
hearing about personal experiences, and considering
why and how these different phenomena happen, the
connections between them, how to bring them about
and what psychological or philosophical
implications they have.

Description:
Unmoderated discussion forum dealing with issues in
psychiatry and abnormal psychology.
This mailbase list has been set up with the aim of
utilizing the vast resources of the Internet on
behalf of everyone interested in issues in
psychiatry and abnormal psychology. As with any
discussion forum its value will be proportional to
the effort that those contributing to it are
prepared to make in provoking stimulating and
thoughtful debate.
The forum was judged to be necessary because
many
of the findings and viewpoints in the fields of
psychiatry and abnormal psychology are both
controversial and easily misinterpreted, resulting
in a lack of empathy and understanding between
those pursuing radically different approaches to
the aetiology and pathophysiology of mental
illness. It is hoped that the forum will act as a
bridge between those taking a biomedical viewpoint
of the study and treatment of psychopathology, and
those taking a more existential or psychodynamic
viewpoint.
It is hoped in particular that amicable
discussion
will encourage and support an attitude of mutual
respect, producing a more collaborative approach to
these difficult issues, so narrowing the
unacceptably wide gulf that now separates the
opposing camps.
All of those wishing to share personal
insights,
research findings, philosophical outlooks, clinical
case notes, or simple anecdotes on any of the
following, are cordially invited to contribute:
* Methodology: clinical case histories,
scientific
experimentation, laboratory models, statistical and
analytical methods, meta-analysis.
* Current and past research papers, unpublished
findings.
* Epidemiology of mental illness.
* Concepts of abnormality: The underlying
philosophy of psychiatry and abnormal psychology.
* The history of perceived causes of abnormal
behaviour: possession and witchcraft, physical
causes, psychogenic causes.
* The real life experience of mental illness.
* Conflicting Approaches? The Biomedical
approach,
the psychodynamic approach, the environmental
model: behavioural and cognitive approaches.
* Psychiatric Nomenclature
* Psychometric Testing - Psychological
classification and assessment.
* Specific Disorders: Personality disorders,
neuroses, paranoid states, affective disorders,
schizophrenia, organic disorders, eating disorders,
sexual dysfunction and abnormality, psychoactive
substance abuse, psychosomatic illness, behavioural
disorders in children.
* Diagnosis, classification, symptomatology,
and
prognosis of mental illness.
* Psychoneuroimmunology, psychoneuroendocrinology.
* Disorders of the nervous system and
psychopathology.
* Psychiatric emergencies.
* Psycotherapeutic techniques.
* Alternative approaches: meditation,
relaxation,
etc.
* Physical treatments: psychopharmacology,
electro-
convulsive therapy, aversion therapy,
psychoneurosurgery, etc.
* Mental illness and the legal system:
uses and
abuses of psychiatry.
* Mental illness and society: community
care, the
history of mental health care, the public
perception of the mentally ill.
* Psychopathology and creativity.
* Aetiology: genetics, neuroanatomy,
neurophysiology.
* Reviews of new publications, journal
articles,
conferences. Have you read a stimulating
reappraisal, or cogent exposition of your
speciality? If so, let us know.
* Assessment of contributors to the development
of
psychology and psychiatry: Charcot, Freud, Jung,
Adler, Bleuler, Kraepelin, Meyer Erikson, Fromm,
Rogers, Perls, Frankl, Skinner, Ellis, Laing et al.
The basic underlying philosophy of this
forum is:
"There is someone wiser than any of us, and that is
all of us." This would also be an appropriate motto
for the Internet, and I would be very happy to hear
from anyone who would like to assist in the
compilation of a resource guide, register of
research interests, or any other such extension to
the services offered by this list that would be
productive in making it a more useful tool to the
subscribers.

information texts to any e-mail users connected to
the Internet, with interest in TDR. The List may
also serve as an informal Forum among TDR
scientists to exchange ideas/information which may
be helpful to each other. Messages should be short
(Remember in some countries users are paying for e-
mail per every word they receive!).
In mid-1993 when WHO became a full Internet node, a
number of WHO Divisions, including TDR, started to
experiment with the new facilities. One of which is
Mail-Reflector. It enables an e-mail based
distribution list or discussion list. TDR-
SCIENTISTS List was announced in October 1993 issue
of TDR News.
This is an experimental List
1994 WHO would acquire an Internet software which
simulates functions of Listserv (of Bitnet type).
Until then, a human host or two are looking after
the traffic.
FAQ: some of the Frequently Asked Questions are:
Q. Give me the list of all subscribers.
A. Please wait until the List is put
on a Listserv type. There are subscribers who wish
to remain anonymous. Listserv will take care of
this requirement nicely by giving a "conceal
option" to subscribers.
Q. If I have a question to TDR
officials, can I send them e-mail direct?
A. E-mail is considered by the TDR
secretariat as "an experimental communication mode,
somewhere between Voice-
mail and Fax".
All TDR professionals have an account
E-mail communications from developing countries are
taken as a substitute of Fax, so you can send even
OFFICIAL notes (except of course where a signature
is legally required).
