And David Ogden of the National Institute for Medical Research in London studied how the skate senses small electric potentials in surrounding seawater to locate prey. Joining the annual gathering of scientists were 19 print and broadcast journalists who had been awarded MBL Science Writing Fellowships. This program offers writers the chance to step into the shoes of people they cover, to study basic biomedical and environmental science and— for some—to spend additional time doing course work in Woods Hole or research at Ecosystems Center field sites in Alaska and Brazil. Education It is my great pleasure to tell you that in 1999 the Howard Hughes Medical Institute awarded a new grant of $ million to the MBL. The four-year award will support many of our advanced laboratory courses for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and university faculty members. The MBL has received $ million in HHMI grants since 1988 for which we are extremely grateful. In that time, more than 4900 students have participated in courses taught by the best faculty in the world. Last summer, the MBL offered 20 courses, involving 579 faculty and guest lecturers and 427 students. Molecular Biology of Aging and a second session of Medical Informatics were added to the course list in 1999. Also in 1999 we welcomed David Garbers (HHMI, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center) and Randall Reed (HHMI, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine) as new directors of the Physiology course. This past summer was also the final year in
