Structure and content of the databases will be reviewed. With respect to literature searching, emphasis will be on PubMed, and the participants will learn to construct precise search strings by employing the tools (e.g. MeSH) of the databases. The focal point of the introduction to Web of Science and Scopus will be cited reference searches. In continuation of this, issues of “What is scientific quality, and can it be measured?” (‘impact factor’, H-index, research registration, etc.) will be discussed. Furthermore, topics related to the publication of research results will be presented and discussed (Responsible conduct of research, Copyright, Open Access, and Predatory Journals). Finally, reference management programs (EndNote) will be introduced.
