The Biomolecular Object Network Databank (BOND) is an online search resource in the fields of genomic, proteomic and metabolomic research. It is the first open access resource to integrate sequence and interaction information.Users may perform cross-database searches of available sequence, interaction, complex and pathway information. BOND integrates a range of component databases including Genbank and BIND, the Biomolecular Interaction Network Database.

MedEd Portal
MedEdPORTAL, provided by The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) was designed to promote collaboration and educational scholarship by facilitating the open exchange of peer-reviewed teaching resources such as tutorials, virtual patients, cases (PBL, SP, OSCE), lab manuals, assessment instruments, faculty development materials, etc. Through this site, faculty can locate information about high-quality, peer-reviewed teaching material in both the basic and clinical sciences.
Registration is FREE and you can customize your MedEdPORTAL as well as submit resources for publication. Click Login from the main menu then click New User to register. You can create a customized home page called MyMedEdPORTAL that allows you to track your submissions and discover recently published items in your area of interest. Features include Search by Keyword and Browse by Discipline. A complex search can be created via the Power Search link. Keep in mind that using numerous fields may result in a narrow search.

Human Genome Epidemiology Network (HuGENet)
The site offers HuGE Navigator, an integrated, searchable knowledge base of genetic associations and human genome epidemiology, including information on population prevalence of genetic variants, gene-disease associations, gene-gene and gene- environment interactions, and evaluation of genetic tests. Since 2001, HuGENet™ has maintained a database of published, population-based epidemiologic studies of human genes extracted from PubMed. The HuGE Navigator replaces earlier search tools for use with this database and provides additional applications for use by researchers and the public.
In addition, HuGENet provides an e-book, e-journal club, reviews, articles (full-text available if library subscribes), case studies, factsheets, and other publications.
POGOe
POGOe, a partner site of the Association of American Medical Colleges’ MedEdPORTAL, is an online clearinghouse of geriatric educational products. It provides educational materials to be used or adapted for individual learning environments. POGOe users include practicing physicians, clinician educators and physicians in training. Materials are indexed based on content area or learner type, and range from resources to aid in enhancement of patient assessment to pocket cards, web-based modules and virtual patient cases.
POGOe encourages users to submit educational products of their own, and provides a way for authors to gain feedback from end users about their experience.
Use the search field on the toolbar to perform a basic search. For a more specific search, click on "Advanced Search" where you may search by content area, learner type, and format.
POGOe requires that all users register with the site.
