The International Biometric Society is an international society promoting the development and application of statistical and mathematical theory and methods in the biosciences, including agriculture, biomedical science and public health, ecology, environmental sciences, forestry, and allied disciplines. The Society welcomes as members statisticians, mathematicians, biological scientists, and others devoted to interdisciplinary efforts in advancing the collection and interpretation of information in the biosciences. The Society publishes two journals, Biometrics, reporting communications consistent with the Society’s mission, and, jointly with the American Statistical Association, the Journal of Agricultural, Biological, and Environmental Statistics. The Society is organized into geographically-defined Regions, each with at least 10 members. The Society is governed by an Executive Committee of General Officers and a legislative Council representing the international diversity of the membership. Regions elect their own officers and governing boards. ... [Information of the supplier]
Experimental Biology is the study of the form and function of animals and plants at all levels of organisation from the molecular and cellular to the whole organism. The ethos of Experimental Biology is one of interdisciplinary studies usually conducted within the context of the environment and evolution of the organism. The Society for Experimental Biology believes that the broad nature and lack of “ology” boundaries implicit in Experimental Biology give it a pivotal role in the development of Life Sciences which are of considerable benefit to its members and to society. In particular, Experimental Biology contributes to knowledge that can be applied to the development of agriculture and medicine and to understanding the impacts of human activity on living organisms and ecosystems. ...

The EBI provides access to many different types of biological databases. The following is a brief summary of the types of databases available and the tools which can be used to query these database for various biological data. [Information of the supplier]
The primary goal of computational molecular biology, like molecular biology itself, is to understand the meaning of the genomic information and how this information is expressed. We are interested in the problems of predicting biological function of genes and gene products from their primary sequence and structure (sometimes known as functional genomics). We are interested in predicting structure of protein and DNA from its sequence, and understanding how and when genes are expressed. ... [Information of the supplier]
Bioinformatics is devoted to advancing the scientific understanding of living systems through computation. The Bioinformatics and Biological Computing Unit promotes and supports the adoption, use, and development of bioinformatics tools for advancing biological research. The BBCU server is dedicated to various bioinformatics analyses. Listed here you'll find local resources (tools and databases). Other listed resources (tools and databases) are available on the internet. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]

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]
