R Interface to the Europe PubMed Central RESTful Web Service

v0.4.3 · Sep 20, 2023 · GPL-3

Description

An R Client for the Europe PubMed Central RESTful Web Service (see <https://europepmc.org/RestfulWebService> for more information). It gives access to both metadata on life science literature and open access full texts. Europe PMC indexes all PubMed content and other literature sources including Agricola, a bibliographic database of citations to the agricultural literature, or Biological Patents. In addition to bibliographic metadata, the client allows users to fetch citations and reference lists. Links between life-science literature and other EBI databases, including ENA, PDB or ChEMBL are also accessible. No registration or API key is required. See the vignettes for usage examples.
