PubMed is one of the most popular health sciences databases. This workshop will focus on effective keyword searching, using Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), and identifying when— and which— search limits and filters should be applied. Some of PubMed's additional features, such as the Single Citation Matcher and Clinical Queries search functions, will also be discussed.
In this workshop participants will:
- Run a search in PubMed's advanced search using keywords and Medical Subject Headings (MeSH)
- Identify appropriate search filters
- Become familiar with some of PubMed's additional features
