HEDS Website of the Month - Scite

This month's HEDS recommended website is Scite which helps you check whether a scientific paper has been supported or contradicted. Scite uses machine learning to scan hundreds of thousands of scientific papers and classifies them by whether they support, contradict or just mention the papers they are citing.

When a paper is analysed they are added to the Scite database which makes them searchable on the platform. You can use the tool via the website or using Scite's Chrome browser plugin.

Website of the Month for November - Trip Search Engine

For November's Website of the Month we have chosen the excellent Trip Search Engine

Trip is a clinical search engine designed to allow users to quickly and easily find and use high-quality research evidence to support their practice and/or care. Trip has been online since 1997 and in that time has developed into the internet’s premier source of evidence-based content. Their motto is ‘Find evidence fast’ and this is something they aim to deliver for every single search.

As well as research evidence they also allow clinicians to search across other content types including images, videos, patient information leaflets, educational courses and news.

They also include the PICO search tool which allows you to search for research in relation to their four criteria of Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome. 

For further information on Trip you can visit their website here
