The Society for Conservation Biology is an international professional organization dedicated to promoting the scientific study of the phenomena that affect the maintenance, loss, and restoration of biological diversity. The Society′s membership is comprised of a wide range of people interested in the conservation and study of biological diversity: resource managers, educators, government and private conservation workers, and students. The purpose of The Society is: To help develop the scientific and technical means for the protection, maintenance, and restoration of life on this planet - its species, its ecological and evolutionary processes, and its particular and total environment.

The European Molecular Biology Laboratory [EMBL] is an international research organisation with its main laboratory in Heidelberg [Germany], and four outstations in Hinxton, [UK] [the European Bioinformatics Institute, EBI], Grenoble [France], Hamburg [Germany], and Monterotondo [Italy]. Research at EMBL emphasizes experimental analysis at multiple levels of biological organisation, from the molecule to the organism, as well as computational biology, bioinformatics and systems biology. Research is supported by the development of enabling technologies that are made available to the scientific community in core facilities like for e.g. genomics, electron microscopy, advanced light microscopy, and proteomics. Many scientific breakthroughs have been made at EMBL Heidelberg, most notably the first systematic genetic analysis of embryonic development in the fruit fly by Christiane Nüsslein-Vollhard and Erich Wieschaus, for which they were awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1995.

During the past decade, a substantial body of evidence has indicated that a class of multiprotein complexes known as condensins is one of the key components that directly regulates chromosome architecture and dynamics. The chief function of condensins is to assemble and segregate chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis, although recent studies suggest that they also play much broader roles in the expression and maintenance of the genome.
