Is there a database or clearinghouse of active biology research projects that we could search for Amia related activity?
If you or any of the BAG members want to do your own database searches, you can logon to the National Library of Medicine website (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/) and get a list of articles (some will have links to the actual articles) on whatever topic you wish. Go to the site and click on the ‘PubMed’ tab. Type in any keywords in the the ‘for’ box (e.g. Amia calva), hit ‘GO’ and see what comes up. I got 78 hits for Amia calva. This is not a comprehensive site since it will only find journals that submit results to the National Library of Medicine, but it’s not bad. You can also try the FishBase website (http://www.fishbase.org/), but I think I saw that listed somewhere on the GASSBAG website.
