The International Society of Developmental Biologists (ISDB) is a non-profit scientific association which has as its aim the promotion of the study of developmental biology. To this effect, the ISDB also organises and supports scientific meetings and workshops. Formerly known as the International Institute of Embryology (IIE), the ISDB was renamed in September 1968. The International Society of Developmental Biologists consists of individual members and society members. ... [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. ...

The HUSAR Bioinformatics Lab at the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ, Heidelberg) provides cutting-edge bioinformatics support and training to the scientist of the (post-) genomic era. This includes the Heidelberg Unix Sequence Analysis Resources (HUSAR), a large collection of essential sequence analysis tools. We provide the most up-to-date databases and software packages. Our main package - HUSAR - offers more than 260 applications for DNA and protein analysis. In addition to the latest, complete version of the GCG package (about 50% of our applications), you can use tools developed by us and by other ranking researchers in the bioinformatics field. We offer more than 200 databases, which are updated as soon as new versions become available. The major databases are updated every night (e.g. EMBL, GenBank) or weekly (Swissprot, Unigene). With HUSAR you can analyse the newest sequence data available. This is essential, as the DNA databases currently double their sizes in less than 9 months. ... [Information of the supplier]
