Description

In Episode 32 of The Instruction Request Podcast, co-hosts Beryl White-Bing and Lauren Odom explore key biomedical research resources available through the Thomas G. Carpenter Library at the University of North Florida, while also highlighting Nanome, an immersive virtual reality platform transforming how students and researchers engage with molecular structures.

This episode introduces listeners to essential biomedical databases, including PubMed, CINAHL, MEDLINE, and Web of Science, and discusses how these tools support research in the health sciences, biochemistry, and interdisciplinary inquiry.

The episode also features a discussion of Nanome in the UNF Virtual Learning Center, including its use in a biochemistry class where students explored molecules collaboratively in a shared 3D virtual environment. Beryl shares how immersive learning through Nanome supports engagement, visualization, and deeper understanding of scientific concepts.

Topics covered include:

  • Biomedical databases for health and science research
  • Using PubMed, CINAHL, MEDLINE, and Web of Science effectively
  • Nanome for immersive molecular visualization and collaboration
  • Applications of VR in biochemistry instruction
  • Emerging connections between library resources and immersive technologies

Whether you are a student, faculty member, or researcher interested in biomedical information literacy or innovative teaching tools, this episode offers practical resources and new ideas for research and learning.
