Introduction
This guide was put together with the goal of helping students in Dr. Rola Bekdash's Spring 2020 Neuroendocrinology course get started with finding peer-reviewed scholarly journal articles for their research project. It is intended to complement and supplement the February 20, 2020 library research instruction session.
By no means is this an exhaustive guide to doing research, so if you have any questions, please get in touch with Bonnie Fong (her contact information is along the right column) or Ask-A-Librarian.
