Tips for searching well

Searching can be difficult. Try to use as few words as possible to describe what you are interested in. Use all lowercase letters. Enter Boolean operators in uppercase characters to combine or exclude search terms:

Or use what others are searching for as a starting point

  • nudge theory

What We Do

Many great ideas don’t make it into practice. Staying up-to-date with current research means organizing and searching through tons of literature. The best search strategies aren’t always clear. For those working in social services, this is a serious obstacle. Ultimately, it hurts the people that social services are trying to help.

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.
