BOX 203-425 Academic and Scientific Career Files, 1931-2004
The Academic and Scientific Career Files series documents Colwell’s contributions to the scientific community in research, education, and development of science policy in the areas of marine biotechnology, microbial ecology, and microbial systematics, mostly between 1970 and 2003. The series features writings, speeches, grant files, correspondence, and an expansive subject file focusing on her research on marine and estuarine microorganisms, interactions between microorganisms and their environment, and cholera and species of bacteria. The series also documents her role as an administrator at the University of Maryland, primarily as founding president of the Maryland Biotechnology Institute. Some files related to Colwell’s role as a researcher can also be found within the National Science Foundation Director Files series including files related to the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh (ICDDR, B), American Society for Microbiology, and International Union of Microbiological Societies. This series does not contain many files on her role as president of the American Society for Microbiology, as a member of the National Science Board from 1984 to 1990, or any files related to her career after 2004.
Arranged into four subseries.
BOX 203-241 Speeches and Writings, 1968-1999
The Speeches and Writings subseries comprises files related to articles, reports, speeches, books, and chapters of books written by or edited by Colwell. In addition to the final published and unpublished writings, the files contain drafts, working files, and other background material. The bulk of the writings span from 1974 to 1994. No writings after 1999 are represented in the subseries. Topics include marine biotechnology, Vibrio cholerae and other Vibrio species, marine and estuarine microorganisms, the effect of bacteria on marine life, and interactions between microorganisms and their environment, especially in relation to petroleum and other pollutants. Much of the research relates to studies conducted in Bangladesh and the Chesapeake Bay. Speech files include American Society for Microbiology conferences and presentations, congressional hearings, and plenary addresses. Reports and articles often include research conducted as part of grant-funded projects located in the Grants, Proposals, and Contracts subseries. Additional writings and speeches are also in the proceedings, symposia, and conferences files in the Subject File subseries.
Material types include articles, abstracts, bibliographies, charts, graphs, reviews, correspondence, outlines, reports, agreements, and speeches. Some textual materials are in digital formats.
Arranged alphabetically by material type and thereunder either chronologically or alphabetically by title. The file structure of the digital content maintained as received.
