Scientific Research — Improved
Working through scientific papers is tough. We simplify it for you.
Tips for searching well
Searching can be difficult. We use the MeSH dictionary to help direct your search. Try to use as few words as possible to describe what you are interested in. Enter Boolean operators in uppercase characters to combine or exclude search terms:
- AND retrieves results that include all the search terms.
- OR retrieves results that include at least one of the search terms.
- NOT excludes the retrieval of terms from your search
Or use what others are searching for as a starting point
- nudge theory
- MS treatment
- babesia
- babesia
- public health framework
- public health AND framework
What We Do and Why We Do It
Many great ideas don’t make it into practice. Staying up-to-date with current research takes time. And this can be in short supply.
PubTrawlr helps people search and understand scientific results more effectively and efficiently by providing on-demand, web-based information leveraging cutting-edge natural language processing techniques.
By getting good ideas out there, we can work to close the research-practice gap. We want doctors to use best practices. We want students and their teachers to know what the most recent developments are. And, we want people in our communities to have a simpler way to engage with scientific research.
