I am posting this for a colleague who does not have access to USENET. Please respond to his e-mail address listed below, NOT to me. Thanks! ##############################CLIP HERE#################################### I am a Graduate Research Assistant in the Theoretical Biology group at LANL. I'm to design and develop a database, but I am a neophyte with RDBMS's. Does anyone know of a (short) course in relational design and theory happening this summer? I have been querying the GenBank database with SQL and learning about Unix (shell scripts, the OS, etc.) for a few months, but my background is liberal arts (in other words, I want to be challenged, but something like Stanford's Short Course on Modern Systems Architecture is a little too elevated for me...). Anywhere in the continental US is feasible, although the closer to New Mexico the better. Please respond directly to me, since we do not yet have on-site USENET capability. Thanks very much for any and all help... Graham Redgrave gwr@life.lanl.gov
