GoPubMed retrieves PubMed abstracts for your search query, detects Gene Ontology (GO) terms in the abstracts, displays a subset of the GO relevant to the keywords, and allows you to browse the ontology and display only papers containing specific GO terms. After performing a search, the resulting abstracts are annotated with your query keywords and GO terms. The abstracts are grouped using the GO terms, which appear in the text. Now you can use the GO hierarchy to systematically explore your search results. ... [Information of the supplier]
Developed as part of the BioText project at the University of California, Berkeley, the BioText Search Engine is a freely available Web-based application that provides biologists with new ways to access the scientific literature. The interface has been carefully designed according to usability principles and techniques. Three views allow different types of browsing: (A) Abstracts (List View): Allows users to search over titles, abstracts and authors. Returns a list of abstracts showing the figures associated with each article. (B) Captions (List View): Allows users to search over captions. Returns a list of captions and their figures. (C) Captions (Grid View): Allows users to search over captions. Returns figures and truncated captions in a grid arrangement. The system uses Lucene for the underlying indexing, and users can use all the Lucene operators in their search queries. The search engine is a work in progress and more functionality will be added over time. The system indexes all open access articles available at PubMed Central. New articles are indexed daily. The current collection consists of more than 150 journals, 20,000 articles, and 80,000 figures. ... [Information of the supplier]
The field of immunometabolism has thrived over the last decade, revealing not only the major roles played by immune cells in metabolic homeostasis but also the impact of metabolic pathways on immune cell function. As new discoveries continue to reveal the intricate links between immunology and metabolism, a key question arises: will our accumulated knowledge on immunometabolic deregulations translate into novel therapies for human diseases? During this Cell Symposium, you will hear about the latest advances in immunometabolism from physician-scientists, basic researchers and industry leaders. We will discuss how local and systemic metabolism are integrated at the cellular level to regulate immune cell function and we will focus on how novel insights into immunometabolism can be harnessed to advance and/or bolster therapeutic interventions in metabolic diseases, inflammation, autoimmunity, and cancer. ...

The tasks of the Robert Koch Institute include the monitoring of emerging diseases and risk factors in the general population as well as the provision of scientific research. This allows appropriate measures to protect the general public health to be taken in a rapid and effective way. These tasks make the RKI the central institution and the coordination centre for the Federal Ministry for Health for applied and basic research in the areas of infectious diseases, including infection epidemiology and epidemiology of non-transmissible diseases. On this basis, the RKI is in the position to suggest measures for intervention and prevention, to fill gaps in the knowledge and ensure the quality of health screening and care. The RKI takes part in the preparation of guidelines, recommendations and expert opinions for the federal government, the parliament, the scientific sector and other health-related political issues. ...

The new Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) is the scientific body of the Federal Republic of Germany that prepares expert reports and opinions on questions of food safety and consumer health protection on the basis of internationally recognised scientific assessment criteria. With the help of risk analysis, BfR formulates action options for risk reduction. Against this backdrop, the Institute assumes an important task in improving consumer health protection and food safety. The assessments are to be presented in a transparent and comprehensible manner to the general public, scientists and other involved or interested circles. The assessment results will, in principle, be made publicly accessible whilst maintaining the confidentiality of protected data. ... [Information of the supplier]
In the year 2003 scientists from around Germany initiated the establishment of the German Society for Stem Cell Research (GSZ) with emphasis on basic research in stem cell biology. The society is a non-profit organisation, financially and politically autonomous, and is registered with the district court Cologne under the number VR 14639 since November 4th 2004. The main purpose of the society is to promote stem cell research. In order to achieve this goal the society will promote the stem cell research in basic research and in academic teaching by allocating available funds to support training programs, to organize seminars and conferences, as well as instigating the exchange of students and scientists on national and international level for collaborative projects and resulting publications. ...
