YSMU got an access to OVID SP

We are happy to announce that from September 2008 YSMU has an access to
OVID.

The administration and the community of YSMU express their gratitude to
Armenian Fund USA, which made this remarkably important for the academic
institution system, available for our students and professors.

Founded in 1988, Ovid is used across the globe by librarians, researchers,
clinicians and students from leading colleges and universities; medical
schools; academic research libraries, hospitals, pharmaceutical,
biotechnology companies and clinical practice. OVID help make research
smarter, faster, and more effective by providing powerful information search
and discovery platforms (OvidSP and SilverPlatter) to access premier
electronic content, including a growing list of 1,200 journals, over 500
books, and more than 200 databases, with innovative technology tools and
specialized services to browse, search, retrieve, and analyze critical
information.

`Access to OVID for our university is an incredible chance to support our
researchers and individual work of our students ` said Prof. Magda
Melkonyan, Vice-rector for Research at YSMU.

`It is essential for YSMU to have access to such a system, we are deeply
thankful to Armenian Fund for such incredible opportunity’ said Dr. Gevorg
Yaghjyan, Vice-rector for postgraduate education and CME at the Yerevan
State Medical University.

Access to OVID system is a huge step for YSMU to integrate more in the
international research and healthcare community. It is a priceless tool for
our researchers and students to support their work and to make it easier and
more successful.
