Supporting our mission to make the world’s life sciences information universally accessible, we have recently made a number of significant enhancements to the NextBio solution. Below is a quick summary of enhancements and the improvements made to our search framework.
- Enterprise users can now access NextBio seamlessly from within their corporate intranet
- The Study Inspector and Data Import have been redesigned to be more intuitive.
- NextBio Community capabilities now support the creation of “projects” and discussion boards.
We realize that efficient literature search is an important component of good science. With years of literature experience, our scientific-computing team set out to optimize literature search in NextBio. As a result of their efforts, we have extended our literature search with the following enhancements:
- Our text-analysis algorithm has been enhanced to return the most relevant and highly targeted results to your literature or clinical trials queries.
- When searching for literature within NextBio, you now have the ability to filter the tag cloud by affiliation. This provides one more parameter with which to sort your search results and gives you a quick, easy way to understand the relative contributions of institutions in a given field.
- Last but not least, we have integrated all freely available full-text articles, allowing you to search the full text rather than just the abstract. We also provide convenient links to all full-text articles integrated into NextBio.
With the enhancements listed above, our team is confident that our literature search is now better than other offerings available on the market (i.e. PubMed, Google Scholar). Let us know what you think about these latest enhancements.
