News, Workshops, & Trainings

Course Reserves
Course reserves (access to required course texts via the library) will continue to be provided via e-reserves through the 2022-23 academic year.
Calendar of Library Workshops
The Science Libraries offer drop-in workshops, particularly towards the beginning of each semester. Topics include Data Management, GIS, Citation Management, Productivity Tools, Data Visualization, and more.

For workshops on software, data analysis, and programming languages such as R and Python, watch the D-Lab calendar or sign up for their email list.

Bay Area Open Science Group meets monthly and is a great community for learning about Open Science.

New Library Resources

Comprehensive Foodomics This link opens in a new window
Collection of over 150 articles relating to food quality and safety and their links to human health and nutrition.

Topics include: transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, genomics, green foodomics, epigenetics and noncoding RNA, food safety, food bioactivity and health, food quality and traceability, data treatment and systems biology.
Encyclopedia of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology This link opens in a new window
Theory, background, and methods for the computational analysis of biological data.

Includes coverage of Systems Biology, phylogeny, translational bioinformatics, cheminformatics, and environmental informatics.
Comprehensive Natural Products III: Chemistry and Biology This link opens in a new window
The chemistry and biology concerned with isolation, identification, structure elucidation, and chemical characteristics of naturally occurring compounds such as pheromones, carbohydrates, nucleic acids and enzymes.

Includes sections on the structural diversity and biosynthesis of polypeptides, terpenes, peptides, alkaloids, carbohydrates, and nucleosides; chemical ecology and mode of action; enzymes and enzyme mechanisms; synthetic biology; and new methods in natural products chemistry.
Visible Body: Anatomy and Physiology This link opens in a new window
Anatomy and physiology presented through 3D model sets, animations, and guided dissections.

The 12 units cover specific physiological systems: cells and tissues, integumentary, skeleton and joints, muscle types, nervous, endocrine, circulatory, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive. Each unit includes self-test quizzes. Includes mobile app.
Repbase This link opens in a new window
A database of prototypic sequences representing repetitive DNA from different eukaryotic species, together with analytical software.

Used in genome sequencing projects such as RepeatMasker or CENSOR as a reference collection for masking and annotation of repetitive DNA.
