Abstract
Scriver’s OMMBID, a database for researchers who are studying genetics and genetic mechanisms in disease states, is offered through McGraw-Hill Education. The database is based on the four-volume Metabolic and Molecular Bases of Inherited Diseases, which was originally published in 1960. Its features include the textbook OMMBID (which is continually updated), high-quality images that are easy to download for presentations, animations of disease processes, a section on clinical phenotypes that was written by Jean-Marie Saudubary with algorithms for diagnosis, and social media including the OMMBID Blog and Twitter. (Disclaimer about the social media: the blog has not been updated in two years (as of December 2018) and the Twitter feed has not been updated since 2013.)
