“Biomedical science is an interwoven web of different
disciplinary threads that connect different fields and require that
we have access to information in disciplines that are far outside
our area of expertise.”
Michael CaplanEditor-in-Chief for Reference Module in Biomedical
SciencesYale University School of Medicine, USA
“The module covers the complete spectrum of biology and
biomedical aspects integrated in a very well organized fashion. As
scientists we rely on correctness and something being up-to-date
and so the module is important because it provides this level of
knowledge”
Ralph BradshawSubject Editor for Reference Module in Biomedical
SciencesUniversity of California, San Francisco, USA
