FAQS

I am trying to find scholarly articles on DNA sickle cell disease.

1. Pick the right database.

For scholarly articles on diseases and conditions, your best options are CINAHL Complete or Health Sciences and Nursing.
Both of these collections are available in the database list, which is available on the library homepage and also via the Resources link in your classroom (under e-Resources).

2. Pick the right keywords.

Sickle cell is more formally known as sickle cell anemia, so you might want to type the whole name in: sickle cell anemia
If you want articles that combine sickle cell anemia with DNA, you might try searches such as:
- sickle cell anemia and DNA
- sickle cell anemia and genetics
- sickle cell anemia and genotype

3. Limit to scholarly articles.

Our answer on finding Scholarly or Peer Reviewed articles should help with that...there is a simple box to check to limit your search.
