Module 1: Foundations of MeSH in MEDLINE®


Have you used the National Library of Medicine’s PubMed® database to search for biomedical article citations?

PubMed maps your search terms to Medical Subject Headings (MeSH®) to augment your search with additional terms from the vocabulary that NLM uses to describe articles in MEDLINE®/PubMed. Understanding how MeSH works will help you be a strategic researcher when using NLM resources.
