The HuGE Literature Finder is one component of the HuGE Navigator, an integrated, searchable knowledge base of genetic associations and related information in human genome epidemiology. In 2001, HuGENet launched the HuGE Published Literature database (HuGE Pub Lit), a continually updated and accessible knowledge base on the World Wide Web that tracks the growing published literature of human genome epidemiologic studies. HuGE Pub Lit offers a starting point for assembling articles for meta-analysis, highlighting research gaps, suggesting applied research questions, and identifying potential collaborators. HuGE Pub Lit contains links to abstracts on PubMed that meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria (see below). HuGENet research staff is responsible for extracting relevant articles from PubMed and entering them into the HuGE Pub Lit database on a weekly basis. Since June 2007, a new automatic HuGE literature screening – GAPscreener was implemented to assist the weekly HuGE literature scanning from PubMed. The sensitivity of HuGE literature screening performance can reach 97.5%. An average of 500 new articles per week is retrieved by GAPscreener. A researcher who is familiar with the eligibility criteria for human genome epidemiology then reviews each title and abstract (or in a few cases, the full text). This researcher decides whether the study will be included in the database and, if it will, assigns indexing for each article. HuGE Literature Finder is a newly-designed HuGE Pub Lit database that utilizes the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) as an indexing mechanism. ... [Information of the supplier]
Die Erforschung der Welt in unserem Kopf ist eines der spannendsten und brisantesten Projekte der Wissenschaft. Längst tragen nicht mehr nur Philosophen, Psychologen und Pädagogen, sondern auch Biologen, Mediziner und KI-Forscher dazu bei. Die Disziplinen häufen immer mehr Wissen an – auch über die Grenzen von Natur- und Geisteswissenschaften hinweg. Das darf nicht unkommentiert bleiben, so lautet die Idee von Brainlogs. Ob freier Wille oder Neuro-Enhancement, Online-Dating oder Alzheimer-WG: Was immer Psyche und Gehirn betrifft – wir spießen es auf. Und laden jeden ein, mit uns zu diskutieren! Unsere Blogger sind Meinungsbildner auf ihren Gebieten. Sie suchen sich ihre Themen selbst und sind ungebunden darin, was und wie sie schreiben. Brainlogs bildet die größte Community zu psychologischen und neurowissenschaftlichen Themen in der deutschsprachigen Blogosphäre. ... [Information des Anbieters]

The German Society of Human Genetics (GfH), founded in 1987, is the primary professional membership organization for human geneticists in Germany. More than 1000 members belong to our Society, as there are researchers, academics, clinicians, laboratory practice professionals, genetic counselors and others involved in or with special interest in human genetics. ...

The Society for Anthropology (GfA) can be viewed as a representative for all branches of anthropology and human biology in the German language area. It was formed in 1992 following one year of preparation and conceived as a combined successor society for the no longer existant German Society for Anthropology from the new German states and the Society for Anthropology and Human Genetics from the old German states. Because it stands for representation for the common scientific good, the society promotes research and teaching as well as engaging in the active dissemination and application of the scientific results yielded in the process of studying human biology. ...

In Cooperation with the Institute for Anatomy and Cell Biology, the Library of the University of Heidelberg has digitalized selected anatomical literature and lithographs from the 19th century. This includes textbooks, scripts and drawings which described the teaching and research of this period, and has provided a unique insight into the work and history of the Institute. The oldest textbooks that have been digitalized were written by Jacob Fidelis Ackermann (*1765 †1815). The public was made aware of his presence from the beginning of his tenure in Heidelberg because he attempted, often with little success, to rebut the phrenological theses of Franz Josef Galls (*1758 †1828). Most of the anatomical drawings are lithographs by anatomists who worked in Heidelberg during their scientific career. Many of these very artistic lithographs originated in Heidelberg. Indeed Friedrich Tiedemann (*1781 †1861) dissected innumerable human and zoological cadavers during his tenure in Heidelberg, which he used to write his book “Tabulae Anatomicae”. Unfortunately, the work of Vincent Fohmann (*1794 †1837) concerning the “Saugadersystem”, today known as the lymphatic system, has been for all practical purposes forgotten. He was however well known outside of Germany for his uncomparable detailed mercury injections of specimens. Other authors include the Anatomists Friedrich Arnold (*1803 †1890), Carl Gegenbaur (*1826 †1903), and Alexander Ecker (*1816 †1887). ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
