Well Firefox browser is a great tool and as it is infinitely customisable, it can prove in handy for many browsing related activities in a more efficient manner.
We think it would be useful to have a lits of such useful customisations/extensions for medical students at one place in this thread. So go ahead and list any such extension that you might be aware of. As an exception, we would allow you to post a direct link to the extension (only if it is hosted on Mozilla website).

Biobar - A toolbar for browsing biological data and databases.
| Quote: |
| The biobar project is a bioinformatics power-browsing toolbar for Mozilla-based browsers including Firefox/Flock/Mozilla/rxpg
and Seamonkey. This toolbar provides access to all major biological data resources. The primary advantage of this tool is that it allows a biologist to browse and retrieve data from Genomic, Proteomic, Functional, Literature, Taxonomic, Structural, Plant and Animal-specific databases. In addition to the browsing features, biobar also provides links to important bioinformatics sites and services including services at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI), National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) and DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ). The tool also provides links to major data deposition sites for nucleotide, protein and 3D-structure data. Finally, the menu also contains links to many Sequence, Structure alignment and analysis tools. |

Some Screenshots of Zotero
Zotero will automatically sense the research material when you reach the particular page.
It will show an icon - A folder or A Book based on the content.
Click on the Book icon to save the Webpage to your collection.
There is a Zotero icon at the lower right corner of the screen.
Clicking on it will open the Zotero window.
 ...
click to zoom
The window displays your Zotero library. This is very helpful to determine the authenticity of the journal.
You can also highlight the important points for future reference.
