A Student's Guide to the Medical Literature

Exploring the existing medical literature can be a real challenge. Fortunately, this site offered by the University of Colorado's Health Sciences Center provides a nice guide. Created by a fourth year medical student, Katherine McLucas, the guide begins with a short tutorial that outlines a simple four-step approach to reading medical literature. Additionally, the site also includes a section on search strategies, an interactive glossary with hyperlinked terms, and version of the guide that can be used on a PDA.
