Medical / Biological Sciences: Find Articles & Sequences

Links to all the NCBI databases

Gene supplies gene-specific connections in the nexus of map, sequence, expression, structure, function, citation, and homology data. Unique identifiers are assigned to genes with defining sequences, genes with known map positions, and genes inferred from phenotypic information. These gene identifiers are used throughout NCBI's databases and tracked through updates of annotation.

PubMed is the NLM version of Medline in addition to miscellaneous other journal content. If you use PubMed regularly you should set up a My NCBI account and take advantage of the ability to customize "filters."

This is the EBSCOHost version of Medline. EBSCOHost's search system allows the searcher to do very precise keyword searches, but requires a familiarity with Boolean, Proximity, and Truncation Operations; as well as a logical approach to developing search strategies. Contact the HSL Reference Desk for tutoring or see the search guides.
