Stem Cells: Scientific Progress and Future Research Directions (NIH)
http://www.nih.gov/news/stemcell/scireport.htm
| National Center for Biotechnology Information www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov |
Understanding nature’s mute but elegant language of living cells is the quest of modern molecular biology. From an alphabet of only four letters representing the chemical subunits of DNA, emerges a syntax of life processes whose most complex expression is man. The unraveling and use of this "alphabet" to form new "words and phrases" is a central focus of the field of molecular biology. The staggering volume of molecular data and its cryptic and subtle patterns have led to an absolute requirement for computerized databases and analysis tools. The challenge is in finding new approaches to deal with the volume and complexity of data, and in providing researchers with better access to analysis and computing tools in order to advance understanding of our genetic legacy and its role in health and disease.
The late Senator Claude Pepper recognized the importance of computerized information processing methods for the conduct of biomedical research and sponsored legislation that established in November, 1988, the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) at the National Library of Medicine (NLM). The NLM was chosen for its experience creating and maintaining biomedical databases, and because as part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), it could establish an intramural research program in computational molecular biology. NCBI’s mission is to develop new information technologies to aid in the understanding of fundamental molecular and genetic processes that control health and disease. Its mandate includes four major tasks:
| Create automated systems for storing and analyzing knowledge about molecular biology, biochemistry, and genetics; |
| Perform research into advanced methods of computer-based information processing for analyzing the structure and function of biologically important molecules; |
| Facilitate the use of databases and software by biotechnology researchers and medical personnel; and |
| Coordinate efforts to gather biotechnology information worldwide. |

Genomic and Genetic Resources on the World Wide Web
| Medline Search: Internet Grateful Med-http://igm.nlm.nih.gov |
Internet Grateful Med (IGM) is a World Wide Web application running on a gateway system at the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM). Internet Grateful Med is most often used to search in MEDLINE -- more than nine million citations to the biomedical literature of the world, from 1966 to the present. IGM provides assisted searching in MEDLINE (including PREMEDLINE) and 14 other databases: AIDSLINE, AIDSDRUGS, AIDSTRIALS, DIRLINE, HealthSTAR, HSRPROJ, HISTLINE, OLDMEDLINE, SDILINE, SPACELINE, BIOETHICSLINE, POPLINE, TOXLINE and ChemID. A brief description of each database is available from the IGM introductory screen. Internet Grateful Med User's Guide http://igm-01.nlm.nih.gov/splash/IGM.survival.guide.html#intro

As active participants in the ongoing effort to change the course of science education in our schools, we have seen numerous projects, studies, and articles about new curriculum and assessment, new teaching and learning research, and new standards and reforms. This teaching and learning forum provides a place for us to reflect on these ideas and the effects they have on our students' understanding of science.
