Metallomics

Metallomics is a subject that is receiving great attention as a new frontier in the investigation of trace elements in biology and is expected to develop as an interdisciplinary science complementary to genomics and proteomics. This timely new journal covers the research fields related to biometals and is expected to be the core publication for the emerging metallomics community as they strive to fully understand the role of metals in biological, environmental, and clinical systems. Metallomics publishes original research and topical reviews, which provide insight into the role of metals in the life sciences. Researchers in academia and industry working in analytical science, biogeochemistry, bioinformatics, biological catalysis, biological environmental science, cell biology will be interested in this new journal.

Nature Journals

At the requests of our faculty, the Library asked Nature to provide UST users access to the following three Nature journals. As we know the Nature journals are typically very expensive and the Library has a very tight budget, your comments on whether these titles are essential to your teaching and research needs are important to us. Kindly share this information with your colleagues as the trial will end soon.
