(Tutorial) Importing RSS feeds from PubMed into Drupal

Tutorial : Importing RSS feeds from PubMed into Drupal

In this demo videocast I explain how articles from PubMed can be integrated in a Drupal site. First I focus on the end-user perspective (e.g. adding RSS feeds for specific PubMed queries). Afterwards I talk about how you can implement this on your own website.

This solution can be useful for scientists with a blog or research groups in the medical/biotechnological field that want to give easy access to some of their publications. It could also be the basis for an intranet where you want track and share comments on new developments in specific medical fields. I imagine that you could configure the site with automatic notifications when new content is aggregated and for public sites require the user to approve any new content.

The contrib Drupal modules I use are FeedAPI and the feed element mapper, 2 modules developed by DevelopmentSEED. I'm also of course using CCK and Views, to make the content types and the lists.
