Search by Research Topic (Research Insight)

Search by Research Topic (Research Insight)

The user begins by selecting a search by Research Topic or Scholar Name. Research Topic search is the default setting.

The search can be conducted across the entire country, across the user’s state, across the user’s university system (if applicable) or at the user’s institution.

Next, the user enters a keyword, series of keywords, quoted phrase, or advanced boolean query into the search area. Advanced boolean queries must conform to the Lucene Query Syntax.

Suggested terms will appear as text is entered. Clicking a suggested term will add it to the search bar. Suggested terms are derived from several publicly available ontologies, including those published by the U.S. National Library of Medicine, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
 

An initial search of a research term or terms produces three displays: Results, Refine Your Search, and Related Terms.
