Medical Sciences Database

The Medical Sciences Database is an Internet-based collection of news and review articles from the current literature appropriate for building or supplementing your knowledge. Most of the materials have been reviewed by School of Medicine faculty before placement in the database. Select articles have been placed in the MRC Vertical File for ready access. The remaining articles may be retrieved from Morris Library, the MRC, or other indicated sources.

For those students that would like some guidance with their learning issues, please consult the BMB C2000 Resources (or BMBR C2000 Resources).

We encourage both students and faculty to forward appropriate materials to the Medical Resource Center for inclusion in the Medical Sciences Database and MRC Vertical File.

The Medical Sciences Database may be accessed from any computer (student computer lab, tutor rooms, MRC) with an Internet connection.

• You can search for articles by author, journal, title, keyword (default setting), book, editor, or publisher.
• Once you obtain the search results, you may perform a sub search by the use of your browser's Find menu function.
• Search results may be saved as a file on your computer or appropriate storage medium and then edited within MS Word before printing out a final copy.
