Item Copyright 101(2021-11-17) Fagundes, DaveThis session is presented by Dave Fagundes, the Baker Botts LLP Professor of Law and the Research Dean at the University of Houston Law Center. It covers the basics of the federal Copyright Act and major judicial interpretations, including what works are protected, what acts are infringing, when unauthorized use may be permitted, and what common misunderstandings about copyright law to avoid.Item Creating and Using Your ORCID iD(2023-04-12) Lapka, StefanieHistorically a particular author's contribution to the scientific literature or publications has been hard to recognize as most personal names are not unique, they can change (such as with marriage), have cultural differences in name order, contain inconsistent use of first-name abbreviations and employ different writing systems. ORCID addresses this problem by providing a persistent digital identifier (an ORCID iD) that you own and control, and that distinguishes you from every other researcher. Creating an ORCID iD allows authors to obtain credit for their work – grants, publications, peer review, affiliations, and more. Stefanie Lapka, Health Sciences Librarian, will teach how to create your ORCID iD and set up and manage your ORCID record.Item Developing Biosketches: How to Create a Biosketch for NIH/NSF Grant Proposals(2023-03-22) Lapka, StefanieBiosketches are a key component of most major grant proposal packages, highlighting the skills and experiences of the principal investigator (PI), key personnel, and core project team members. Similar to a curriculum vitae, biosketches are used by grant proposal reviewers to assess whether the researcher(s) has demonstrated the ability to successfully complete the project they are proposing. Biosketches must conform to specific formats, both in terms of content and required ordering, with requirements varying by funding agency and project type. The National Institute of Health (NIH) Biosketch is the most common format. Stefanie Lapka, health sciences librarian, will teach how to create NIH Biosketches that adhere to agency requirements and connect to publication histories using the tools SciENcv (Science Experts Network Curriculum Vitae), My Bibliography, and ORCID.Item Embase 101(2023-11-09) Helbing, RachelThis session will provide an introduction to searching Embase, a major biomedical and pharmaceutical database indexing over 8,200 journals, including 3,000 journals unique to Embase and journals from 95 countries. Rachel Helbing, Head of Health Sciences Libraries, will cover Embase basics like constructing a search, using Emtree and search filters, sorting and sharing results, and accessing full text. Skills learned in this session will help you get the most out of your Embase searches.Item EndNote 101(2021-10-20) Lapka, StefanieEndNote Online is a citation manager that can be used by researchers to format, organize, and share citations. Stefanie Lapka, Health Sciences Librarian at UH Libraries, will cover how to create an account, utilize plug-ins, add and organize references, and cite while you write.Item PubMed 101(2023-10-05) Helbing, RachelThis session will provide an introduction to searching PubMed, the world’s premiere biomedical database which comprises more than 36 million citations. Rachel Helbing, Head of Health Sciences Libraries, will cover PubMed basics like constructing a search, using MeSH and search filters, sorting and sharing results, and accessing full text. Skills learned in this session will help you get the most out of your PubMed searches.Item Researcher and Author Identifiers, Profiles and Social Networks: Maximize Your Impact!(2023-02-22) Lapka, StefanieBy increasing your online profile and engagement, you may be able to influence your success rate in the competitive research and academic environment. How to demonstrate research impact and engagement varies widely by discipline context and specific purpose (i.e. grant application or promotion application). This webinar explains how to make your research and publications more accessible and reduce ambiguity between you and other researchers. Stefanie Lapka, health sciences librarian, compares four researcher/author identifiers, plus provide a brief introduction to other web and funding profiles to consider.Item Searching the Health Literature 101(2023-09-07) Helbing, RachelThis session will provide an introduction to searching the health literature with tips, tricks, and best practices to make your searches more successful. Rachel Helbing, Head of Health Sciences Libraries, will cover searching basics like choosing appropriate databases, using PICO to generate a list of keywords, constructing a strategy with Boolean operators, and more. Skills learned in this session will be applicable for searching a variety of biomedical and social sciences databases.Item Systematic Reviews 101(2021-09-22) Helbing, RachelA systematic review utilizes specific methods in an attempt to collate all empirical evidence on a given topic. This is done in order to answer a posed research question with minimal bias and maximum reliability, improving the ability to make decisions. Rachel Helbing, Director of Library Services for the Health Sciences at UH Libraries, will discuss the steps involved in conducting a systematic review.
