You do not need to create a PubMed account to utilize it for research. However, there are some benefits to creating a PubMed account:

  • Highlight your search terms in your result list
  • Create collections and save articles for the future
  • Access your recent search history
  • Create saved search alerts that will be sent to your email

You can use your RFUMS Google account to sign up for a PubMed account. Due to the DUO authentication process, if you have issues creating an account try clearing your cache or setting up the account in a different browser you don't normally use.
