This electronic book, The Arabidopsis Book (TAB), (ISSN: 1543-8120), is an attempt at a new mode of communication between researchers and a new model for scientific publishing. TAB in its initial stage is a compilation of over 100 invited chapters, each reviewing in detail an important and interesting aspect of the plant Arabidopsis thaliana, with reference to what is known in other plants and in other kingdoms. The project is sponsored by the American Society of Plant Biologists.

This database is a catalog of human genes and genetic disorders Authored and edited by Dr. Victor A. McKusick and colleagues at Johns Hopkins and elsewhere, the database is a catalog of human genes and genetic disorders. The database contains textual information, references, and links to MEDLINE, sequence records in the Entrez system, and to related resources at the National Center for Biotechnology Information.

The long-term goal of the Visible Human Project® from the National Library of Medicine is to produce a system of knowledge structures that will transparently link visual knowledge forms to symbolic knowledge formats such as the names of body parts. The project is in the process of creating complete, anatomically detailed, three-dimensional representations of the normal male and female human bodies.
