Hi,

 

I couldn't find a more approproate section but I'm a student at UCLA who decided to launch sciencerate.com where sicentists posts articles from journals and others comment/rate them. I was given the idea that we cna integrate PubMed into it where users just paste the pubMed ID and the rest will get filled out. THe problem is that it's not eacy to do, does anyone else think that would be a good idea?

 

Or any other suggestiones?

Im' sure you would have to pay pubmed royalties in order to do this.

I just listened to "NPR Science Friday" podcast, where they talked about PubMed Central -- a project to publish medical/scientific research papers openly to the public.

 

Check the episode out, you might find it interesting

And it's pretty cool too, they're going to have funding from the NIH...

way to render my university completely useless, NIH... of course the only reason I enrolled was to get journal access.

Hmm, Pubmed central has been around for some time already (~8 years, with only few journals, though) and I assumed that the rule regarding NIH funded publications was also longer in place. I may be wrong with the latter, though.

Who does the rating? How do you vette them to know they are qualified to rate the paper?
