About

PubMed (National Library of Medicine) represents by far the first information source when it comes to medicine related information.
Even though it is free, it has a very well-structured searching system and controlled vocabulary.
It has recently also added a new interface and features that make it even more useful.
However, especially for Pharmacovigilance purposes, sometimes it is not considered sufficient. Therefore, in many cases it would be appropriate to extend literature monitoring activities.
The aim of this training is to broaden literature monitoring activities in an advance manner using low-cost or free additional sources such as Core, CrossRef, MedXRiv, BioXRiv.

During the training, the following topic will be taking into consideration:

PubMed and Medline: a quick presentation
PubMed’s main competitors
New/useful PubMed features that facilitate work
Additional free sources
- PubMed Central
- Core
- CrossRef
- MedXRiv
- BioXRiv
Case examples
APIs and automated searches
Machine-aided classification, summarization, and analysis with examples
Hands on exercises on advances strategies and their implementation in Pubmed
Hands on exercises on other sources

Scientific Documentation Specialists, Medical Affairs Managers and Officers, Pharmacovigilance Specialists.
