Independent Blog

For this post, I wanted to share one of my most valuable sources for my research so far.

My mentor, Nina, is actually the one who turned me on to this site called PubMed. Basically, this website is a search engine for biomedical literature. It consists of over 24 million sources from online books, MEDLINE, and life science journals.

This source has been extremely helpful to my growing pile of research. I trust this source not only because my mentor suggested it and said that BMGC uses it as a resource, but also because it is created and maintained by The National Center for Biotechnology Information located within the National Institutes of Health. PubMed has helped me understand more about my topic, as well as give me insight to other techniques used for fall prevention.
