The Language of Medical Terminology

(View Complete Item Description)

Short Description: The Language of Medical Terminology is an open educational resource (OER) that begins with a focus on the practice of breaking down medical terms into their component parts. This is practiced through the beginning of the book in order to develop a solid foundation on medical term parts, their meaning and how to understand the full meaning behind medical terminology as a whole. The OER then continues onto the use of abbreviations, anatomy and physiology, body systems, common tests and procedures and finishes with content focusing on medical professionals in health care. This OER serves to provide the basic knowledge necessary to work in the health care setting.

Anatomy Quizbook: for students studying or intending to study medicine

(View Complete Item Description)

The Anatomy Quizbook is an interactive learning book that will help students and tutors – indeed anyone interested in anatomy – learn, test and improve their knowledge of the human body. Readers are presented with carefully selected questions and diagrams addressing core learning in clinically-relevant anatomy. This selective rather than exhaustive approach will especially suit time-poor scholars. Regular self-testing will also ensure a robust and strategic understanding of the subject matter. In this first Volume, you can develop your knowledge of fundamental anatomy, including clinically-relevant terminology and the significant parts and operation of the: - Thorax, focusing on the heart, lungs, and associated bones, muscles, nerves, blood and lymphatic vessels. - Abdomen, exploring the stomach, intestines, pancreas, liver, gallbladder, kidneys, spleen and their supporting structures (muscles, nerves, blood and lymphatic vessels). - Pelvis, examining the bones, ligaments, vessels and nerves of the pelvic region, the features of male and female pelves, and the major digestive and excretory organs (colon, rectum, bladder and urethra). Whilst developed primarily for students who are studying, or intend to study, medicine, the Anatomy Quizbook will reward all readers who seek to explore and learn about the workings of the human body. Regular users will find much to learn and build on, hopefully leading to further enthusiasm for a valuable subject that underpins much of medicine.

Chemistry of Cooking

(View Complete Item Description)

People around the world are fascinated about the preparation of food for eating. There are countless cooking books, TV shows, celebrity chefs and kitchen gadgets that make cooking an enjoyable activity for everyone. The chemistry of cooking course seeks to understand the science behind our most popular meals by studying the behavior of atoms and molecules present in food. This book is intended to give students a basic understanding of the chemistry involved in cooking such as caramelization, Maillard reaction, acid-base reactions, catalysis, and fermentation. Students will be able to use chemistry language to describe the process of cooking, apply chemistry knowledge to solve questions related to food, and ultimately create their own recipes.

Enzymes in UniProt

(View Complete Item Description)

This webinar will provide a practical overview of the type of information the protein database UniProt offers for enzymes and how to access it. We will introduce the new enhanced enzyme annotation based on Rhea, a comprehensive expert-curated database of biochemical reactions that uses the ChEBI ontology to describe reaction participants, their chemical structures, and chemical transformations. In this webinar, we will show how this new feature forms the basis of a new search. Ultimately, this information will help users to integrate and analyse metabolomic data, annotate metabolic networks and models, or mine reaction data to study enzyme evolution and predict new pathways for drug production or bioremediation. Who is this course for? This webinar is aimed at individuals who wish to learn more about enzymes in Uniprot. No prior knowledge of bioinformatics is required, but an undergraduate level understanding of biology would be useful.

Material Type: Lecture

Enzyme Portal

(View Complete Item Description)

Enzyme Portal is a freely available resource to find and explore enzyme-related information. It integrates relevant enzyme data for a wide range of species from various resources such as UniProt, PDB, Reactome or CHEMBL. This webinar will provide a practical overview of the type of information that the Enzyme Portal provides for enzymes. We will show, using various examples, how to search the Portal for specific enzymes according to the reactions they catalyse, the pathways or the diseases they are involved in. Who is this course for? This webinar is aimed at individuals who wish to learn more about enzymes. No prior knowledge of bioinformatics is required, but an undergraduate level understanding of biology would be useful.
