MeshPubMed

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

MeshPubMed is together with GoPubMed a knowledge-based search engine for biomedical texts. The Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) serve as "Table of contents" in order to structure the over 16 million articles of the MEDLINE data base. The search engine allows Medical Doctors (and Biologists) to find relevant search results significantly faster.

The technologies used in MeshPubMed are generic and can in general be applied to any kind of texts and any kind of knowledge bases. MeshPubMed is one of the first Web 2.0 search engines. The system was developed at the Technical University of Dresden by Michael Schroeder and his team and at Transinsight.
