Open Access Journals in Medicine - Alzheimer's Association

Open Access (free) journal articles in the neurosciences

Open access is the practice of providing unrestricted (free) access to peer-reviewed scholarly journals over the Internet. Open access is available in all disciplines of teaching and learning including medicine.

Find free medical literature in such areas as general medicine, neurology, geriatrics, nursing, and social work. Use this resource to locate free evidence based medicine for preparing papers, articles and presentations, writing grants, or to increase your knowledge of Alzheimer's disease. Publishers typically allow access immediately or after a certain time period and may link both free and fee-based articles on the same Web page.

Tips

Take advantage of the publishers' tips or tutorials on how to search.

Look for buttons, drop-down menus, or advanced search options that allow you to rank by relevancy, dates, or to add words that may narrow your search.

Try removing the apostrophe from alzheimer's if you get an error message or do not find articles. Also try your search by typing alzheimer or dementia.

Look for "collections" or "special issues" on your topic that may already have articles you need.

Review the results thoroughly. You may need to skip through multiple pages to find relevant articles.

Some Open Access services, like Amedeo, provide the journals impact factor which is a number that represents how often its articles are cited and implies its popularity and leadership in the field. Read more about impact factor here.
