I am an Ph.D. student in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI.  I graduated with Honors in Biological Sciences with a concentration in Neurobiology and Behavior from Cornell University in Ithaca, NY in May 2008.

My primary interest in contributing to the  Citizendium is in the field of animal behavior; however, I've contributed to articles on Wikipedia in other areas of biology, chemistry, and physics, and expect to do so here as well.  I am also interested in scientific classification.  My organisms of choice generally belong to the class [[Insecta]].  As for nonscientific interests, anime, manga, and other aspects of Japanese popular culture are a hobby of mine.  I am also an avid reader of both fiction and non fiction.

If someone wants to fix this to get the annoying blue stripe below the banner removed, and center the banner table, that would be awesome.  I can't figure out why either of those two things are happening.  Also, the banner design is by no means final.  I am happy for suggestions.  [[User:Marielle Fields Newsome|Marielle Fields Newsome]] 11:36, 8 June 2008 (CDT)
If someone wants to format this better, that would be great.  Also, the banner design is still a work in progress.  Suggestions are very welcome.  [[User:Marielle Fields Newsome|Marielle Fields Newsome]] 11:36, 8 June 2008 (CDT)

Insect classification, like much of taxonomy, has been going through rather dramatic changes recently.  The most complete source for up-to-date classification seems to be [http://www.itis.gov/ ITIS].  As such, I've decided that the site will be my final authority on taxonomy.  I notice that Wikipedia uses more recent material in their classification, but I'm hesitant to do that, mostly because taxonomy is often interdependent, and one paper does not a new order make.

Biology Workweek Mock-ups

Main page

Here's the .svg, if anyone wants to work on it. I think the rest of the pencil needs shading, and maybe the amoeba needs to pop more.

Hi! I'm an amoeba and I write Citizendium articles. So can you!
Biology Week is on!
Join us this week, September 22-28

You're invited to work on high priority articles, or simply start a new one!
It's a Workgroup Week. If an amoeba can participate, so can you!

(Are you new? This is a good day to get a Quick Start.)

Workgroup Page

If someone wants to format this better, that would be great. Also, the banner design is still a work in progress. Suggestions are very welcome. Marielle Fields Newsome 11:36, 8 June 2008 (CDT)

Hi Marielle, these look great! For uniformity, though, let's use the name "Biology Week." Also, if I had my pick, I'd put the second one on the main page, because it's fancier...not that I care that much, I really don't.

Workgroups are no longer used for group communications, but they still are used to group articles into fields of interest. Each article is assigned to 1-3 Workgroups via the article's Metadata.

Taxonomy

Insect classification, like much of taxonomy, has been going through rather dramatic changes recently. The most complete source for up-to-date classification seems to be ITIS. As such, I've decided that the site will be my final authority on taxonomy. I notice that Wikipedia uses more recent material in their classification, but I'm hesitant to do that, mostly because taxonomy is often interdependent, and one paper does not a new order make.
