Hypertension, Dialysis, and Clinical Nephrology

Hypertension, Dialysis, and Clinical Nephrology provides up-to-date, selected information on renal disorders and their treatment (hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis), and about hypertension, dialysis, and clinical nephrology topics.Hypertension, Dialysis, and Clinical Nephrology is a place for physicians and nurses who treat patients with kidney or renal disease. Here physicians and nurses can find answers to frequently asked hypertension, dialysis, and nephrology questions (FAQ), pointers to recent review articles, and summaries of hot new hypertension, dialysis, and nephrology papers, abstracts, and meeting presentations. Also, information about medical products, devices, services, and drugs pertaining to hypertension, dialysis, and clinical nephrology are provided, as is a list of links to relevant hypertension / dialysis / transplantation organizations, medical provider networks, and databases. Much of the information presented is collected from a distinguished editorial board composed of specialists in the field of kidney or renal disease.

Palynology

It is the branch of science dealing with microscopic, decay-resistant remains of certain plants and animals. It has many applications including archaeological palynology, Quaternary palynology , and stratigraphic palynology.

International Life Sciences Institute (ILSI)

The International Life Sciences Institute (ILSI) is a nonprofit, worldwide organization whose mission is to provide science that improves public health and well-being. 

The Dung File

The Dung File consists of a list of references dealing with pollen, parasites, and plant remains in coprolites and latrine fills from archaeological and palaeoenvironmental sites. The focus is on studies in North America, although the list also includes studies from many other areas. About 48% of the citations are from areas other than North America. The list includes mostly publications in the English language.

Entomological Society of Canada

The Entomological Society of Canada represents one of the biggest and oldest societies in whole Canada. This entomological society focuses on professional work with insects and other vermin species. It was founded in Toronto on April 16, 1863 and offered students as well as lovers and enthusiasts of entomology a wide range of knowledge – and free access to the whole collection of information about entomology.

Human Frontier Science Program

The Human Frontier Science Program (HFSP) is an international program of research support, funding frontier research on the complex mechanisms of living organisms. Research is funded at all levels of biological complexity from biomolecules to the interactions between organisms.

Cyanosite

The cyanosite webserver is a useful resource for cyanobacteria researchers and teachers. Highlights of the site include CyBib, the most extensive online cyanobacteria bibliography, and a link to cyanonews, a newsletter for cyanobacteriologists. The site also provides lab protocols, media recipes, a taxonomic reference, conference announcements, and a gallery with more than 200 images of cyanobacteria.

The Talk Origins Archive

Talk.origins is a Usenet newsgroup devoted to the discussion and debate of biological and physical origins. Most discussions in the newsgroup center on the creation/evolution controversy, but other topics of discussion include the origin of life, geology, biology, catastrophism, cosmology and theology.

The National Center for Genome Resources

NCGR in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is a non-profit research institute dedicated to improving human health and nutrition.

International Society for Stem Cell Research

The ISSCR is an independent, nonprofit organization formed in 2002 to foster the exchange of information on stem cell research. With more than 3,500 members worldwide, the ISSCR has become the voice of the stem cell research community.

National Kidney Foundation

Consists of physicians, scientists and other health professionals that provide advice and guidance to the President on NKF's activities related to medicine and health.

E.coli Genome Project
PDB-Protein Data Bank

The Protein Data Bank (PDB) archive is the single worldwide repository of information about the 3D structures of large biological molecules, including proteins and nucleic acids. These are the molecules of life that are found in all organisms including bacteria, yeast, plants, flies, other animals, and humans. Understanding the shape of a molecule helps to understand how it works. This knowledge can be used to help deduce a structure's role in human health and disease, and in drug development. The structures in the archive range from tiny proteins and bits of DNA to complex molecular machines like the ribosome. The PDB archive is available at no cost to users. The PDB archive is updated each week at the target time of Wednesday 00:00 UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). The most recent release is timestamped and linked on every page in the top right header.

Bean Genes

BeanGenes is a plant genome data base which currently contains information relevant to Phaseolus and Vigna species.

Genamics

Genamics is a software and web development firm dedicated to empowering researchers with modern and innovative solutions.

Species 2000

Species 2000 is a federation of database organisations working closely with users, taxonomists and sponsoring agencies.The goal of the Species 2000 project is to create a validated checklist of all the world's species (plants, animals, fungi and microbes). This is being achieved by bringing together an array of global species databases covering each of the major groups of organisms.

National Shellfisheries Association

This web site includes information on organizational structure, membership, meetings, employment opportunities and publications. The association posts instructions for contributors and tables of contents for the Journal of the Shellfish Research. Contains also links to web sites on shellfish, fisheries, aquaculture, and aquatic environments, as well as related organizations, laboratories, and government agencies.

Sanger Institute

We study diseases that have an impact on health globally by investigating genomes. Building on our past achievements and based on priorities that exploit the unique expertise of our Faculty of researchers, we will lead global efforts to understand the biology of genomes. We are convinced of the importance of making this research available and accessible for all audiences.
