Best Bets

PubMed/MEDLINE

PubMed comprises more than 19 million citations for the biomedical literature and links to DNA and protein data at NCBI.
RefWorks
Citation management tool for storing and managing references; creating bibliographies. Supports most citation styles. Requires an individual account set up from a VCU Libraries link. Available to VCU and MCVH-VCU email account holders.
Gene Reviews and Gene Tests
GeneReviews are expert-authored, peer-reviewed, current disease descriptions that apply genetic testing to the diagnosis, management, and genetic counseling of patients and families with specific inherited conditions. GeneTests lists clinical testing services.
NCBI - National Center for Biotechnology Information
The NCBI advances science and health by providing access to biomedical and genomic information. A major repository of DNA and protein information as well as programs to search and compare sequences.
