A member of Kenyon's faculty since 1984, Joan Slonczewski is a leading expert on Escherichia coli bacteria. Her research focuses on how the bacteria survive in extreme acid and base environments. In her research laboratory, she and her students identify genes and proteins regulated by acid and base conditions, which may become likely targets around which to design new antibiotics. Slonczewski's work has been supported by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and the National Science Foundation. Also an acclaimed science-fiction novelist, Slonczewski received the John Campbell Memorial Award in 1987 for her book A Door into Ocean . Her most recent novel, Brain Plague , was published in 2000. Slonczewski is known, too, for her innovative teaching techniques: for example, she teaches a "Biology in Science Fiction" course, an introductory-level offering for nonscience majors that she teaches once each academic year.

    Extractions: March 5, 2002 Ok, it's not what you're thinking. Yeah, I know the inside cover says "hard sci-fi" but it's not a scary hard read, I promise. So there's these microbes which have a symbiotic relationship with people. And you can get them, if you can deal with all the chatter inside your head. See, cause the microbes are people and each set has it's own political system and even nightclubs and booze and they have personalities. And they think you're god! Since one of your days is an entire generation to them. Pretty cool. But there are evil microbes floating around too which can turn you into a vampire. Suck. Chrisoberyl decides to let the microbes grow inside her head, to help her art. Which they do, provided she allow political prisoners to reside in her head too. This decision sweeps her into galactic intrigue. It's amazing how tiny things can end up in galactic intrigue. Probably people that actually go looking for intrigue never find it. And she has one of those love interests where you're just going, "Come on ! He totally likes you. Send him one of those 'do-you-like-me-circle-yes-or-no' notes from fifth grade." Or maybe that's just me. Her microbes like to party down and give her no end of trouble. The problem is, if the little bacteria decide to drug you (like the evil ones do), you could end up with a head full of dopamine which pretty much translates to liquid crack. You're not good for much afterwards. And the evil germs have this Slave World that they're kidnapping their crack-heads to, which the Elves (yes, the

51. Joan Slonczewski, The Children Star
    joan slonczewski, The Children Star (Tor, 1999). joan slonczewski,in the The Children Star, has written a hard SF novel set far  
    http://www.rambles.net/slonczewski_children.html
    
    Extractions: Joan Slonczewski, in the The Children Star , has written a hard SF novel set far in the future, when humans are practically immortal. (The highest political official of the civilization, Verid Anaea shon , has lived, and has had the same lover, for more than a millennium.) Human/ape hybrids ("simians") and sentient machines are commonplace. However, while good science-fictional ideas abound, there remains to the novel an overall emotional and intellectual flatness. One of the main protagonists is a religious monk, Rod, who, as part of his dedication to the call of the Spirit, embraces the traditional vows of poverty, chastity and obedience. Rod aspires to live a moral and ethical life amid a society that struggles (like all societies) to balance the power and aggrandisement of the few against the freedom and dignity of the many. This balance has swung in favour of the few in the case of "sentients" factory-made machines that have achieved consciousness. The novel describes the similar political/legal battle that must now be fought in establishing the ethical basis of society's responsibility towards alien ecologies. The battleground is a planet, Prokaryon, the planet upon which Rod and co-religionists struggle to maintain an orphanage.

    Extractions: UNI is, on the surface, a free and even somewhat hedonistic society, but as time goes on it becomes apparent that it has its own ways of achieving the cheerful conformity it expects of its citizens. Some of the Foxfielders are willing to make that tradeoff; others aren't so sure. She is an accomplished scientist (her doctoral thesis at Yale concerned the structure of bacterial flagellar propellers, which is good enough for me); this background shows up in the aboriginal residents of Foxfield, the Commensals, who are among the more finely detailed alien species I've seen in science fiction. She's currently teaching at Kenyon, where she keeps this home page (Clicking this link will, or should, open a new browser window.) This is an unusual science fiction book in that the avoidance of conflict takes precedence over battle, so comparisons are limited. I must say that the writing is not distinguished; much of the activity, especially in the first half, is "talked" rather than "done," and the dialogue and characterization are definitely secondary to the theme. Could this writer offend delicate sensibilities?
