• Cell Motility and the Cytoskeleton
• Cell and Tissue Research
• Chromosoma
• EMBO Journal
• Genes and Development

Medline Database

MEDLINE is a literature database of life sciences and biomedical information containing review and research articles. See also Project Referencing to generate references within your project, a reference list on your page and formatting the pubmed reference link.

• Pubmed" MEDLINE is the National Library of Medicine (NLM) USA premier bibliographic database covering the fields of medicine, nursing, dentistry, veterinary medicine, the health care system, and the preclinical sciences." (NCBI)
  • MH - I would prefer reference links to be added pointing to this database.

• UNSW also has the MEDLINE database available through the Library using Sirius.
  • While it is essentially the same reference database, some papers will have different access rights based upon the university's subscriptions.

Searching with nearly any term will result in a large number of results that can be made more specific by either:

1. Using "Preview/Index" option to carry out an additional search and then combining with your first result. (#1 AND #2) or
2. Using "Limits" option to set limits on your search results. (review, years, english, etc)

OMIM Database

• OMIM
  • "OMIM is a comprehensive, authoritative, and timely compendium of human genes and genetic phenotypes. The full-text, referenced overviews in OMIM contain information on all known mendelian disorders and over 12,000 genes. OMIM focuses on the relationship between phenotype and genotype."
  • (MH - this is an excellent reference source for your individual projects)

Medical Dictionary

• NIH Medlineplus Medical Dictionary Type the word that you would like to find. If unsure of spelling, type the first few letters, followed by an asterisk(*).
