Welcome!
Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. Here are pointers for a quick start. You'll probably want to know how to get started as an author. Just look at CZ:Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. Be sure to stay abreast of events via the Citizendium-L (broadcast) mailing list (do join!) and the blog. Please also join the workgroup mailing list(s) that concern your particular interests. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forums is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any constable for help, too. Me, for instance! Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun! Bruce M. Tindall 17:25, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Some ideas for contributions
Dear James, welcome aboard Citizendium. Bruce has already given you some hints as to how things work here in general, and I assume that Gareth has mentioned CZ to you before. I wish to add some practical suggestions on what possibilities you have to contribute. For a start, I just took some of the keywords from the information you supplied upon registration, and display below the current state of related CZ articles (for icon documentation, see Template:Rpl/Doc):
Biology [r]: The science of life — of complex, self-organizing, information-processing systems living in the past, present or future. [e]
Microbiology [r]: The study of microorganisms (overlapping with areas of virology, bacteriology, mycology, and parasitology). [e]- Molecular biology [r]: The study of molecular interactions within cells. [e]
Genetics [r]: The study of the inheritance of characteristics, genes and DNA. [e]- Biotechnology [r]: The application of biological principles in industrial production [e]
Epigenetics [r]: Modifications in a gene's activity, expression, and/or regulation that do not involve changes to the DNA sequence. It is possible for such differences to be inherited from one generation to the next. [e]- DNA [r]: A macromolecule — chemically, a nucleic acid — that stores genetic information. [e]
- DNA methylation [r]: Add brief definition or description
- DNA methyltransferase [r]: Add brief definition or description
- RNA [r]: A polymer, made using the nucleotides of adenosine, guanosine, uridine and cytidine, that is used for a variety of biological functions in living systems. [e]
- Histone deacetylase [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Chromosome [r]: A compact body of ribonucleic acid wrapped around proteins that is the unit in which genetic material is distributed during cell division. [e]
- Chromatin [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Edinburgh [r]: The capital of Scotland. [e]
- Scotland [r]: A country that forms the northernmost part of the United Kingdom; population about 5,200,000. [e]
In order to find articles dealing with similar topics, it's also worth looking at the Related Article subpages of such an article (or the [r]).
Good luck with Brochothrix thermosphacta!
