      I have access to Proquest through my school, as well as a number of (less useful) other databases.

        I used to subscribe for Nature

        But their articles are really deep. You need some heavy basics to understand them

              The problem I find is that people who write research papers are generally far from good writers. They are so dry and difficult that I found the contents of them impossible to stick to my mind...

                Dont want the bastards with deep pockets and myriads of panting post-docs to steal the ideas before they're totally ready for consumption. Science is a cut throat business.

                  That's because they are all writen to supply the bare bones information for specialists in the field. That's why there are scientists and writers who popularise science. Of course, the two groups can overlap

                    I haven't had too much difficulty, generally, in reading scientific papers. There was one where I simply had no ****ing clue what they were saying, but the rest are pretty easy to follow.

                      The annual fee is reasonable, and there are all sorts of discuounts you can apply, e.g. economic hardship, student, etc.

                            I occasionally use Nature, Science and The Lancet as sources. I don´t understand half of it, but enough to quote it in a proper context...
