Where to get info URLS (Katja)

[Guest guest]

HI Katja, ; )

You really had me putting on my thinking cap. *smile*.. I get about 50 medical journals (newsletters) a day (yep a day) many from various teaching Universities and major hospitals like Cleveland Clinic, s Hopkins etc. that I read with recent news or updates or press releases daily. When I signed up for them I was able to focus in and choose the info 'I' want sent out as to catagories in most cases. That way I do get the latest news on what "I" might be interested in. Many are free and there are some I pay a yearly fee for, (many used to be free but are now charging for full articles) DRATS. Many are very technical and some more simple.

It would take me forever to even try to pick out some of the best, (I have about 600 resources I use) ranging from Molecular biology, Neutraceuticals, Dermatology, Immunology, genetics, cancer, hormones, drug safety, gynecology, microbiology, J. of experimental meds, J. of Pathology, epidemiology and on and on and on! ha ha But here are some I quickly found and hope they're helpful.

The main key is what you yourself put in the search engine of these sites to look up. It's taken me years to find some of them but the deeper you dig the more you find as one link leads to another. Plus you may only find a sentence or two on something you're looking up but it makes the whole picture eventually.

Hope this helps, Oh... also In our Archives at the Home page are many articles and links listed..
