New Science Research Guides

The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) is a part of the National Library of Medicine.  You might be familiar with the biomedical literature database, PubMed, but did you know that NCBI supports 40 other databases with biomedical and genomic information? The NCBI Resources guide has been populated with general  information about navigating NCBI resources and information about features and data sources you can find in specific databases, such as Gene and Protein.

In the Research Impact guide you’ll find an introduction to the concept, tools which measure research impact, including Scopus and Web of Science, and a description of different metrics.  These include author metrics like the h-index as well as journal level metrics like the journal impact factor.
