The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) is a key part of the U.S. National Institutes of Health. It provides access to a vast range of databases and tools for studying biology, particularly in genetics and molecular biology. NCBI offers resources like GenBank, a repository for DNA sequences, and PubMed, a database of scientific articles. These tools support researchers and healthcare professionals in discovering information about genes, proteins, and diseases, helping to advance our understanding of life sciences and improve medical research and public health.
