NCBI website

Today I write about a very helpful website, the name is NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information). The site link is http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/ and in here the researchers and students can access to a lot of scientific information like papers, abstract, books, etc. The site has many databases, all directed to different research areas and all of them can be accessed from the home page with a search engine tool and a site map. From a year ago I work at genomic lab, specifically in molecular pathology and genomic studies, and this website provides me many genetic and pathology related tools which make easier my researches. Commonly I use the nucleotide, protein and gene databases because my projects are related with this information, but sometimes, I use a feature called Pubmed to search related papers with many subjects that I need to learn, not only related with my area. I visited this site almost everyday for all I mentioned, this is the reason that makes it essential in my work, and the same reason for recommend it to all people related with scientific area, not only professionals, for students also.
