It seems our biology department is in the process of coming out of
a hole and looking for their shadow.  In particular, they have seen
some chemical modeling programs running on an Apollo workstation and
are interested to know if there are biological programs that would
run on workstations.

Does anyone know of some good workstation programs--especially in the
areas of population modeling, genetic simulation (morphological to
micro-genetics), forest canopy maping, and ways to do image processing
with microscopic data?  In fact, anything that utilizes the incredible
graphics capability of modern workstations to aid in instruction or
research in biology would be worth knowing.  As it stands, we don't
seem to be aware of any workstation software at all.
