A search engine has been developed that interfaces with PubMed enabling a search of the published biomedical literature to identify researchers and/or faculty of a named research institution who have published in a specific user-defined research area. The search engine is currently designed to search for UCSD-affiliated researchers, but the parameters in the algorithms could easily be modified to specifically identify researchers at any given research establishment.
The primary advantage of this search engine is obvious: to promote research collaborations, cooperation, teamwork, and synergy within a large university or research establishment, such as a multi-national corporation. The authors do not have to continually update their publication list, as this is done through the PubMed database.
