Staying Current: Omics Podcasts, Videocasts, Webcasts Etc (Omics Series, 24)

Another way to keep up to date with new happenings in research is to take advantage of podcasts and related offerings in your research area. Many conferences are now videotapes and made available on the web. Science news programs often feature interviews with leading researchers. Our library guide to podcasting resources describes ways to discover podcasts on a topic and some of the podcasting and vodcast (video-cast) search engines. We won't repeat that here. Instead, please find below selected examples of the types of online audio and video resources available in the omics research areas, as well as some of the better science news and radio programs that include a podcast or vodcast version of the show. (Hint: My favorite so far is Science & the City).
