متن کاملClosing in on life: proximity dependent methods for life sciences
Method development is a corner stone in science, providing the tools required to address gaps in knowledge. For life sciences, methods for genomics and proteomics have facilitated the endeavors to map the human genome and proteome. These achievements have and will continue to profoundly influence our understanding of life and diseases, providing the blue print on cells and how the genetic infor...
متن کاملE-BioSci: an Europe-based platform for E-publishing and information integration in the life sciences
Just as the emerging field of genomics is changing the way in which molecular biologists plan, execute and interpret their research, so is the transition from traditional to electronic publishing technologies changing the ways in which the results of this research is disseminated to and used by other scientists. Paper is turning out to be an inadequate medium for the flood of new data that ofte...
