NCBI Established in 1988 as a national resource for molecular biology information, the National Center for Biotechnology Information creates public databases, conducts research in computational biology, develops software tools for analyzing genome data, and disseminates biomedical information - all for the better understanding of molecular processes affecting human health and disease. NCBI has a multi-disciplinary research group comprised of computer scientists, molecular biologists, mathematicians, biochemists, research physicians, and structural biologists concentrating on basic and applied research in computational molecular biology. These investigators not only make important contributions to basic science but also serve as a wellspring of new methods for applied research activities. Together they are studying fundamental biomedical problems at the molecular level using mathematical and computational methods. These problems include gene organization, sequence analysis, and structure prediction.

Nature There are eleven publications in the Nature family of international journals: the weekly Nature (founded in 1869), and the monthly primary research titles: Nature Genetics (launched in 1992), Nature Structural Biology (launched in 1994), Nature Medicine (launched in 1995), Nature Biotechnology (formerly Bio/technology - re-launched as a new title in 1996), Nature Neuroscience (launched in 1998), Nature Cell Biology (launched in May 1999), and Nature Immunology (launched in July 2000), and the three monthly review journals: Nature Reviews Genetics, Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology and Nature Reviews Neuroscience (launched in October 2000). • The most important goal of these journals is that the material they publish is of exceptionally high quality. All of them achieve these ends by rigorous standards of peer-review, editorial independence, and rapid publication.

THE LANCET is an on-line version of THE LANCET medical journal. As a subscriber to the printed version of THE LANCET , you have access to all areas of the website. If you are not a subscriber to the printed journal, you can register with THE LANCET to access selected areas of the website. THE LANCET has complete contents lists for all journals dating back to May 31 1996. However, only journals published after December 6 1997 have all their contents available on-line. Journals published between May 31 1996 and December 6 1997 may have only a small selection of their articles available on-line. Every week THE LANCET produces a press release service highlighting the most interesting or innovative research published in the journal. The Lancet's press releases are issued at 1400 H Wednesdays, embargoed to 0001 H Fridays (UK time);. Please note: the US embargo time is 1830 H Thursdays, E.S.T.

The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) is a weekly general medical journal that publishes new medical research findings, review articles, and editorial opinion on a wide variety of topics of importance to biomedical science and clinical practice. Material is published with an emphasis on internal medicine and specialty areas including allergy/immunology, cardiology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, hematology, kidney disease, oncology, pulmonary disease, rheumatology, HIV, and infectious diseases.

The BMJ aims to publish rigorous, accessible and entertaining material that will help doctors and medical students in their daily practice, lifelong learning and career development. In addition, it seeks to be at the forefront of the international debate on health. To achieve these aims we publish original scientific studies, review and educational articles, and papers commenting on the clinical, scientific, social, political, and economic factors affecting health. We are delighted to receive articles for publication in all of these categories - from doctors and others. We can publish only about 9% of more than 6000 articles that we receive each year, but we aim to give quick decisions ... more
