Embase: PubMed on Steroids

ETH Zurich has licensed Embase, a fee-based and extremely valuable information source. Embase can do more than PubMed, but what exactly? In this crash course, the Chemistry | Biology | Pharmacy Information Center will provide you with an overview of Embase's power.

This workshop takes place on Campus Hönggerberg and will be held in English. Before registering, please make sure you have chosen the right crash course. All crash courses are designed independently with minimal overlap in content.

Requirements: You should have attented the Crash Course PubMed Essentials, or at the very least be familiar with PubMed and the use of MeSH-terms.

Registration: https://de.surveymonkey.com/r/T79H3KG (You will be asked to answer a few additional questions so that we can tailor the course contents to your needs.)

Equipment: A laptop with a VPN connection to the ETH network is suggested; you can attend the course without a device, but you will get the most benefit by working along with the examples presented.

Learning goals:

• What is Embase and what can you find in it?
• How does EMTREE work and what are the differences to MeSH terms?
• Unique features in Embase

Presenter: Dr. Leo Betschart
