The DTIC's STINET service helps the DoD community access pertinent scientific and technical information to meet mission needs effectively.

This information resource disseminates reference material on all aspects of refinement of housing and handling conditions and environmental enrichment for ALL animals kept in research, testing and teaching institutions.

Covers topics including methods used to generate each line, a detailed description of the DNA construct used, expression of the transgene or targeted mutation, and the resulting phenotypes.

Bibliographic database of rehabilitation, disability and assistive technology resources contains research documents, project abstracts, and organization and agency listings.

The Web of Science provides access to current and retrospective multidisciplinary information from approximately 8,500 research journals.

CRISP is a searchable database of federally funded biomedical research projects conducted at universities, hospitals, and other research institutions.

The PrimateLit database provides bibliographic access to the scientific literature on nonhuman primates from 1940 to the present for the research and educational communities.
