The German Society of Neurogenetics now owns an WWW site.
The Society was founded in 1994. Its main objective is the enhancement of scientific exchange between all those disciplines that address questions on the genetics of normal and abnormal function of the nervous system. Consequently, its members come from many diverse fields of scientific enquiry such as biophysics, human genetics, cell biology, neuroanatomy, neurobiochemistry, neurosurgery, neurology, neuropathology and psychiatry.

The Journal of Immunology

is now online with their new rapid communication section, the Tables of contents and abstracts of full-length articles are also available.

GenLink is a multimedia database resource for human genetics that is currently under development.
GenLink will provide linkage mapping information and software tools that will facilitate the integration of physical and genetic linkage data to produce unified maps of the human genome.
Researchers interested in identifying genes based on map positions should find the resource helpful.
The resource is based at the Helen Donis-Keller Lab of Washington University in St. Louis, MO.

News and abstracts of six of the most recent issues of JNCI are available on-line.

"The 2nd Internet World Congress on Biomedical Science '95"

is planned from December 4 to 15, 1995. All posters and symposia are presented through the WWW server in Mie University, Japan. The discussion will be held in the virtual conference hall.

Researchers all over the world can attend the congress directly from their laboratories or even from their homes. They can browse the papers and can ask any questions as they would do at ordinary meetings. This is actually an innovative application of the Internet. You can look at the proceedings of the 1st WWW Congress at http://www.medic.mie-u.ac.jp/proc.html.

Gene Therapy Weekly, the CW Henderson Newsletter is online.

Genomic Reagents Resource

The laboratories of Dr. Julie R. Korenberg at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center are pleased to announce the availability of our Genomic Reagents Resource: an integrated database of artificial chromosomes for use in molecular cytogenetic studies. A discussion of the resource and database, material transfer agreement, and gif illustrations of the genome-wide distribution of the probes can be found at our Web site:

ANNOUNCING HEM-ONC --A SUPPORT LIST FOR HEMATOLOGICAL CANCERS

This is an unmoderated discussion list for patients, family, friends, researchers, and physicians to disucss clinical and non-clinical issues and advances pertinent to Hematological Cancers including Leukemia, Lymphoma, and Multiple Myeloma. It includes patient experiences, psychosocialissues, new research, clinical trials, and discussions of current treatment practices and alternatives. The principal focus is expected to be information and reassurance for patients and loved ones and gain information which is often hard to find.

Anyone may join, and it is free to use - there are no fees. Also, the list is run entirely by volunteers.

How to SUBSCRIBE to the Hem-Onc list:

1) Send electronic mail to this e-mail address: Listserv@sjuvm.stjohns.edu
2) Leave the Subject line blank (or type a period if your software requires something there)
3) Place the following message in the body of the mail:subscribe hem-onc First-Name Last-Name

Hem-Onc will be sent in "digest" form daily. After you subscribe, if you prefer, you can change yoursubscription to receive each mail item individually.

The Hem-Onc listowners are:

Skeletal Dysplasia mailing list

Dear Colleagues,

The first generation of the Skeletal Dysplasia mailing list has been established. We welcome postings on the molecular basis of skeletal dysplasias, clinical studies, call for patients and collaborations, unknowns, etc. Remember that, for now, this is a general mailing list and any message you post will be transmitted to every member of the list. Private mail should be submitted to the individual.

As the number of postings increases we will modify the system much like has been done for the HUM-MOLGEN mailing list. Eventually we plan to establish a World Wide Web internet site that will allow the posting of scanned radiographs and photographs.

Anyone with Internet EMAIL access, anywhere in the world, can subscribe to this mailing list. This includes people with accounts on America On-Line, CompuServe, etc. since all of those commercial on-line services now offer some sort of access to Internet EMail.

To subscribe to the Skeletal Dysplasia mailing list, send EMAIL to MAILSERV@CSMC.EDU with:

- nothing in the subject line
- the body of the message should contain one line in the form:
SUBSCRIBE SKELDYS YOUR_EMAIL_ADDRESS
for example
SUBSCRIBE SKELDYS WWILCOX@MAILGATE.CSMC.EDU

Please direct any problems, questions, suggestions, etc. directly to me:

Bill Wilcox
email: wwilcox@mailgate.csmc.edu

Virtual Reality

The images of individual amino acids, the standard nucleotides A,T,G,C and Watson-Crick pairs A-T, G-C and of a few macromolecules are now available in the SGI Inventor 1.0 ASCII format (3D).

The full text World Wide Web version of the Journal of Biological Chemistry (JBC) by the American Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology is now ready to test.

HospitalWeb is a growing collection of links to hospital servers on the Web. Creator John Lester's goal is to provide a simple and globally accessible way for researchers and physicians to get information on hospitals.
