Keeping up with Clinical Research: RSS News Feeds

If you want just one efficient strategy for keeping up, set up an RSS (really simple syndication) feed. You sign up for a Reader which aggregates content of your choosing onto a single page. Here is a complete list of the types of feeds you can create including database search strategies.   

You need just two things to get started:

• register for free software called a reader, to view the feeds. Feedly is recommended but there are others you can sigh up for (see below for suggestions). 
• Once you have an account, look for this symbol or something similar that refers to sharing.

Suggested RSS Readers:

• Feedly.com (requires a Google account)
• Inoreader (doesn't have a mobile app)
• The Old Reader (free for up to 100 feeds)

Where do I find feeds?

• PubMed - create a search strategy 
• Journal tables of contents,
• podcasts
• photo sharing sites
• social bookmarking sites
• Prowl around; they're easy to find!
