UCSD now has access to Biosis Previews going back to 1926. Biosis is the largest collection of references to the biological literature, with more than 18 million references to journal articles, books, conferences and patents.

This is a core resource for biochemistry, natural products research and drug discovery, environmental and marine sciences, and even for engineers looking to the natural world for inspiration (spider webs, etc.).

Biosis Previews is also on the ISI platform, so you can search Biosis and Web of Science (along with some external databases like arXiv, Astrophysics Data System, PubMed, Agricola and the NTIS Library) simultaneously using the Web of Knowledge Cross Search.
