BioMail

Welcome to The Santos Lab portal to BioMail. BioMail is a small web-based application for medical researchers, biologists, and anyone who wants to know the latest information about a disease or a biological phenomenon. It is written to automate searching for recent scientific papers in the PubMed Medline database. Periodically, BioMail does a user-customized Medline search and sends all matching articles recently added to Medline to the users' e-mail address. HTML-formatted e-mails generated by BioMail can be used to view selected references in Medline format (compatible with most reference manager programs). Thus, this program alerts users to all new papers in their fields automatically. It also helps the user to 'refine' search patterns once and for all. There is no need to wonder: 'What was that great search pattern I used last Saturday?'. All patterns are safe in the database and can be accessed, tuned, or deleted any time. BioMail is being run at the AU Dept. of Biological Sciences on an Apple G5 14-processor computer cluster affectionately known as GUMP (Genomics Using Multiple Processors).
