- I am sure everyone is familiar with Google Search. It is the simplest starting point for Web surfing.
- Google offers more specific search engine to search academic articles, called Google Scholar
[2] PubMed
- PubMed is the most popular search engine in biology and medichine.
- Advanced search can be performed here.
[3] Textpresso
- Textpresso is an information extracting and processing package for biological literature.
- It is especially designed well for C. elegans community.
- For extensive article search related C. elegans, this is a powerful tool.
[4] WormBook
- Worm Book is the most well organized website for C. elegans community.
- It is a comprehensive, open-access collection of original, peer-reviewed chapters covering topics related to the biology of C. elegans and other nematodes.
- Worm Method is particularly useful for us.
[5] Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE)
- Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE) is a peer reviewed, PubMed indexed journal devoted to the publication of biological, medical, chemical and physical research in a video format.
- Here is an example of Search for C. Elegans in JoVE.
[6] iBioSeminars
- iBioSeminars.org has been developed to bring the best biology to people throughout the world for free, medical, chemical and physical research in a video format.
- The quality of lectures are all excellent. In particular, Lectures by Cori Bergmans is absolutely wonderful.
[7] UCLA International Conference of C. elegans
- UCLA has hosting biannual International Conference of C. elegans.
- The last one was conducted on June 26 - 30, 2013.
- The next one will be in summer, 2015.
