| Entrez |
The integrated, text-based
search and retrieval system used at NCBI for the major databases,
including PubMed, Nucleotide and Protein Sequences, Protein Structures,
Complete Genomes, Taxonomy, and others. |

| ClinicalTrials.gov |
ClinicalTrials.gov provides
regularly updated information about federally and privately supported
clinical research in human volunteers. |
Provides patients, family
members, and members of the public easy and free access to information
on clinical studies for a wide range of diseases and conditions. |
| FlyBase |
FlyBase is a database of genetic
and molecular data for Drosophila. FlyBase includes data on all species
from the family Drosophilidae; the primary species represented is
Drosophila melanogaster.
|
FlyBase is produced by a consortium
of researchers funded by the National Institutes of Health, U.S.A.,
and the Medical Research Council, London. This consortium includes
both Drosophila biologists and computer scientists at Harvard University,
University of Cambridge (UK), Indiana University, University of California,
Berkeley, and the European Bioinformatics Institute. |
| Community
of Science |
Find funding, identify
experts and collaborators, showcase your research and expertise among
researchers and scholars from universities, corporations and nonprofits
in more than 170 countries. |
Use convenient tools to
keep your CV updated and accessible. |
| OMIM |
Online Mendelian Inheritance
in Man. This database is a catalog of human genes and genetic disorders
authored and edited by Dr. Victor A. McKusick and his colleagues at
Johns Hopkins and elsewhere, and developed for the World Wide Web
by NCBI, the National Center for Biotechnology Information. |
The database contains
textual information and references. It also contains copious links
to MEDLINE and sequence records in the Entrez system, and links to
additional related resources at NCBI and elsewhere. |
| GeneLoc |
Loc presents an integrated
map for each human chromosome, based on data integrated by the GeneLoc
algorithm. GeneLoc includes further links to GeneCards, NCBI's Human
Genome Sequencing, UniGene, Genome Database, and mapping resources. |
Formerly known as The
Unified Database for Human Genome Mapping (UDB) |
| PubMed |
PubMed, a service of the
National Library of Medicine, includes over 15 million citations for
biomedical articles back to the 1950's. These citations are from MEDLINE
and additional life science journals. PubMed includes links to many
sites providing full text articles and other related resources. |
NLM's controlled vocabulary
used for indexing articles for MEDLINE/PubMed is called MeSH. This
terminology provides a consistent way to retrieve information that
may use different terminology for the same concepts. MeSH
tutorials. |
| PubMed
Central |
PubMed Central (PMC) is
the U.S. National Library of Medicine's free digital archive of biomedical
and life sciences journal literature. |
All journals in PMC provide
free access to full text (sometimes on a delayed basis). |
| SCISEARCH® |
A Cited Reference Science
Database is an international, multidisciplinary index to the literature
of science, technology, biomedicine, and related disciplines produced
by Thomson (ISI®). |
SciSearch contains all
of the records published in the Science Citation Index® (SCI®), plus
additional records in engineering technology, physical sciences, agriculture,
biology, environmental sciences, clinical medicine, and the life sciences.
|
| ToxNet |
A cluster of databases
on toxicology, hazardous chemicals, and related areas. The TOXNET
"Multiple Databases" option allows for simultaneous searching of HSDB,
IRIS, CCRIS, and GENE-TOX. |
