Embase, which we described in an earlier article, is a powerful biomedical database which is comparable to PubMed. Unfortunately, the interface for Embase is rather difficult to navigate, especially for new users. We have created two resources for beginning users:
A 2-page handout: Basic Searching in EMBASE
A slide set that shows the first steps in doing a successful search in Embase: Embase: Use Quick Search To Do Mapping!
A slide set that shows the steps to do a simple search on heart attack and aspirin: Embase Searching- A Basic Tutorial
