Primary databases

These are the primary databases to use in biomedical engineering fields, the first places you should look.

  • BIOSIS Previews
    World's most comprehensive database for life sciences from 1950 to date.
  • Medline (OVID)
    This is the most complete access to the Medline database and other databases from the National Library of Medicine
  • PubMed@USC
    Access information in health science and medical fields from MEDLINE, and PreMEDLINE; from 1950 to present. This link to PubMed includes access to USC paid for resources.
  • Engineering Village 2  
      
    Simultaneous searching with links to fulltext sources (if those sources are available) for Compendex and Inspec
  • Xplore (IEEE Electronic Library)
    Full text IEEE publications (journals and conference proceedings) and over 900 IEEE standards; from 1988 to present (some content back to 1950's). Contains the IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering as well as the IEEE Reviews in Biomedical Engineering.
  • Web of Knowledge (Web of Science)
    Provides Science Citation Index (1900 - present), Conference Proceedings Citation Index, Journal Citation Reports, and Essential Science Indicators databases.
