Abstract

The article discusses several issues that are missing from the "Bio 2010" report from the view of geoscientists. It is stated that the report focuses mainly on biomedical applications, and it largely overlooks the intersection of biology with the geosciences. It is stated that the report urges departments to re-design their curriculum to prepare students for careers in the biomedical field, but it fails to recognize the link between human health and the geosciences.
