BioMed Search relaunched

Posted by attilacsordas on October 17, 2007

BioMedSearchcytochromebBioMed Search, the Google-like BioMedical Image Search Engine is alive after a long off period as it was relaunched about 1 month ago.

Current informal science communication in the lab (say in lab meetings or in journal clubs) is centered around interpreting figures. BioMed Search catches somehow the essence of this communication with indexing the images, figures, diagrams, tables of about 1 million images from peer review articles. The primary source is Highwire press and Biomed Central – informed me Alex Ksikes, sole creator of BioMed Search.

I wouldn’t be surprised if one day Google (whose Scholar does not have a special figure search engine) bought this pretty useful service.

Looking forward to further updates.

  1. Awesome tool!

  2. this application is greatly needed in all of the research sciences.

  3. Great site here. Lots of websites like this cover subjects that cant be found in print. I dont know how we got on 15 years ago with just magazines and newspapers.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
