Medical database provider Scientific Institute for Medical Information and Documentation (SIMID), Switzerland, has announced that it is the first in Europe to use a single centralised databank to bring scientific-medical full-text publications within easy reach. Through Scientific Medical Information Library Europe (S.M.I.L.E.), medical professionals can now search for and download original publications and reviews online, from prominent international peer-reviewed medical scientific journals. Currently, the database contains more than 1,000 journals from 28 publishers across the world.
S.M.I.L.E. is accessible through www.simid.org and is made possible in part by financial institutions and companies working in the healthcare industry, such as health insurance providers and the pharmaceutical industry.
The databank lets users read the latest publications, covering 43 different themes, such as oncology, surgery and cardiology. Users can compile a personal profile and receive automatic alerts when relevant articles become available. The database can also be searched using individual keywords. S.M.I.L.E. is updated daily.
