Overview
Research literature contains a wealth of information that can be extracted at scale using text-mining technologies. To make text-mining data available to a wider group of researchers, the publications database, Europe PMC, provides access to millions of text-mined annotations, such as...
In the age of data‐driven science, discovering all the data associated with a study can be tricky. In this webinar, we will demonstrate how to locate primary data in a publication, find facts and evidence to support your hypothesis, and scan a paper for important biological concepts using tools...
Preprints - research articles that are publicly posted before undergoing formal peer review - provide a rapid means to share research results. In this webinar, we will demonstrate how to follow hot-off-the-press research by incorporating preprints in your literature search routine using discovery...
Do you want to identify and prioritise new therapeutic targets? Are you looking for associations of your gene of interest with a specific disease? Do you work in the area of drug repurposing? Are you interested in disease biology? If you said yes to any of these questions, this webinar is for...
Researchers are often asked to maintain an up-to-date publication list, whether for job applications, tenure evaluations, or grant proposals. An easy way to do this is by using your ORCID iD and linking it to your published papers. An ORCID is a unique identifier - personalised number that is...
Following the latest developments in your scientific field requires thorough and frequent literature research. In this webinar, we will show how to find and access relevant scientific literature using Europe PMC, an open biomedical literature database, part of PubMed Central International. We...
This webinar focuses on what happens to your data after you submit it to a public repository and addresses the question of data ownership.
Keeva and Nancy introduce the concepts of FAIR data, metadata and standards. They then show you where you can find an appropriate place to share your data...
