An Email Discussion List is simply a list of people (all with email access of some kind) who have some interest in common.

A software package called LISTSERV acts as the hub of the Biotutor Discussion List.

Anyone with an opinion, problem, request, etc. simply sends one email to

BIOTUTOR-L@JISCMAIL.AC.UK

The Listserver will then receive your email and distribute it to all 700 Biotutor subscribers.

Replies can then be directed back to the Listserver (and subsequently re-distributed) if they are of general interest. Or alternatively recipients can reply directly to the sender, if they so wish.

Subscription and use of this service is entirely FREE.
