Taylor Makela Week 10

Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is to gain experience working with the following research databases: Google Scholar, PubMed, and Web of Science. This exercise serves to explain the different features of each databases, and to start collecting scientific articles that can be used for our future research project.

Assignment

The goal for this assignment is to create a class shared annotated bibliography of references for the next phase of the HIV research project where we will investigate the structure-function implications of mutations in the gp120 protein.

  1. Warm up exercise (announced in class).

  2. We will now create a shared bibliography for the entire class. Go through the search results that you have found and add articles to the class shared bibliography page.
    • Only add articles that are unique (everyone will be adding to the page and we do not want redundant articles)
    • Put review articles and primary research articles in their respective sections. If the article does not fit either of those two categories, place it in the other articles section.
    • Add the articles in APA format (re-find them in Google Scholar to easily obtain APA format, if necessary). Add your wiki signature to the end of the citation.
    • Ideally, each student will contribute 2-3 unique articles.
  3. Now that we have our shared bibliography, each student will be assigned one article. Record the citation for your article in APA format: Ovsyannikova IG, Haralambieva IH, Crooke SN, Poland GA, Kennedy RB. The role of host genetics in the immune response to SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 susceptibility and severity. Immunol Rev. 2020 Jul;296(1):205-219. doi: 10.1111/imr.12897. Epub 2020 Jul 13. PMID: 32658335; PMCID: PMC7404857. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32658335/
    • In Web of Science, search for the specific article that you have been assigned.
      • How many cited references does that article have? 166
      • How many articles have cited the article you have been assigned? 2

Comparing the 3 Databases

  1. What are the relative merits of searching with Google Scholar, PubMed, and Web of Science? Name two advantages and disadvantages for each.
    • Google Scholar Advantages: Provides the greatest number of results, is very user friendly, and has an easy way to cite the resulting articles
    • Google Scholar Disadvantages: Does not have specific advanced search options and the results from each search are not always directly related to the search
    • PubMed Advantages: Has many advanced search options and is user friendly
    • Pubmed Disadvantages: Does not always provide many search results, and does not provide readily available citations
    • Web of Science Advantages: Has many different search options such as advanced search, author search, structure search, and more. Web of Science also provides much more specific results compared to Google Scholar.
    • Web of Science Disadvantages: This search engine requires a paid subscription, and does not provide an easy way to cite articles.
  2. What impact does choice of keywords have on your results?
  3. For your Conclusion section, write a short reflection about what you learned by doing this exercise. Include in your answer what you knew previously about searching the biological literature, and what you learned that was new today.

Conclusion

Overall, this exercise taught me a lot about searching for biological research. Prior to completing this exercise, I was familiar with Google Scholar and would often use this database for completing academic research. Since completing this exercise, I learned a lot about the PubMed and Web of Science databases. Before this assignment, I was somewhat familiar with PubMed, but I since learned how to properly use the site and all of its useful features. Additionally, before this assignment, I had not been exposed to the Web of Science database, but I now feel comfortable working with the database and using its features. As a whole, I feel that now that I have completed this assignment, I now have the tools that I need to conduct proper biological research.
