Scientific & Medical DatabasesAs a service to our members we would like to encourage the submission of URLs of online databases, in much the same way as our links repository. The database name, relevance, category, a short review and a ranking (1 - 5) should be supplied. It would also be useful to describe how to use it, and to provide links to alternative front-ends.All submitted reviews are subject to review by Science Advisory Board staff. Members are asked to submit no more than five database reviews per month so that the postings reflect the diversity of The Science Advisory Board. Databases are organized by category, and are accessible to all visitors. Multiple reviews are encouraged. Members submitting database links and reviews will be rewarded through the ViewPoints system. Additional discussion of databases and their applicability may be conducted via the Discussion Forum. To submit an online database, click here. EverythingBio.com www.everythingbio.com Rating:  This site contains a lot of general information, but doesn't go into much detail. It has a very nice searchable glossary and an easy way to do searches on other sites using just one search box. The site also contains a biology graduate school search feature that is very nice, and lets one compare different programs. I would recommend this site to someone that wants a quick answer to something. And if you want more information you can quickly link (using their links) to another site (PubMed, online textbooks, etc).
