Advanced PubMed Searching

PubMed has many tools that most researchers seldom use. Learn about some of these hidden features that can help you search more efficiently, such as the MeSH database, topic-specific search filters, the Journals database, and saving searches in My NCBI. We recommend that attendees come to our My NCBI session before attending this workshop.
