It won't be a long entry. Some of you have already started the Easter holidays and others will. This is why, on this occasion, I thought that I was doing the maxim of good good if it is short twice as good.
In keeping with this promise, I have decided to share with you what I consider to be my list of the best sources for Scientific information. At the same time as that, I'm sticking with one of my favorite post styles: resource lists.
Before I cut the roll, I want to warn you that all these sources of scientific information are general. All of them are sources or directories of scientific journals and publications of all kinds, so the scientific information stored in them covers many different topics.
Perfect, let's get started right away to introduce you to scientific information resources
Bibliographic databases or directories of scientific information
These databases are an excellent resource for accessing a large number of sources of scientific information. Its access is generally restricted to subscribers only. [ordered_list style = ”decimal”]
- ScienceDirect usa más de 2500 revistas electrónicas y tiene un potente Search Engine con un sistema de filtrado muy conveniente.
- Elsevier Medicine and health. More than 2000 magazines.
- Pubmed Medline search engine. More than 22 million resulting from biomedical research.
- Ingenta more than 12,000 technology publications
- Jumper bibliographic database of all academic fields
- (* 17 *) Scopus Some 18,000 titles, 16,500 science, technology, medicine and social science journals, including the arts and humanities. It is edited by Elsevier
[/ ordered_list]
Muchos de ellos son utilizados por investigadores. Y la calidad solo es comparable a su costo. Estas son buenas soluciones, pero hay que pagarlas. Aun así, posibilitan el pago o compra de publicaciones específicas a un costo de $ 20 por post.
This is a good alternative if you need to enter the results of a very specific survey.
Scientific content search engines
Perfect for starting a search for scientific information or resources. I always recommend using them for more options.
[ordered_list style = ”decimal”]
- Scirus: is a search engine specialized in scientific information. It indexed more than 545 million pages.
- Google Scholar: esta es la respuesta de Google para hallar este tipo de información
[/ ordered_list]
They are excellent for exploring other alternatives if we cannot find what we are looking for in bibliographic databases.
Scientific news
A continuación, presento mis tres sitios Web favoritos de noticias científicas para estar al día con todas las noticias:
[ordered_list style = ”decimal”]
- Sinc Agency: it is a very beautiful publication and similar to a newspaper or magazine. Extremely easy to read and follow.
- Innovaticias : similar to the Sinc agency, it seems more oriented to technological innovation.
- Naukas: undoubtedly one of the publications that brings more fresh air to science in Spanish.
[/ ordered_list]
All of them are a good alternative to keep up-to-date in many different scientific fields.
Scientific journal directories
It is always good to have a directory like this, therefore I leave you some of them.
[ordered_list style = ”decimal”]
- Directory of Spanish scientific journals that you can consult here
- Directory of journals of the Higher Center for Scientific Research CSIC
[/ ordered_list]
Others, blogs ...
In closing, I cannot fail to mention my favorite scientific blogs.
[ordered_list style = ”decimal”]
- Eureka- 2012 Scientific Blog Award Winner
- Pocket science: Blog de Ambrosio Liceaga, amigo personal y gran divulgador científico
- Outdated technology - Talk about science by taking a look back, a whole new approach.
- Gaussians: all about math but from a fun approach.
[/ ordered_list]
In the end, it was not such a short entry, but I still hope you liked it. Do not hesitate to share it on your social networks.
Include sources of scientific information that you know in the comments of this post. Thanks a lot!
