Search engines are perhaps the most important and the most utilized part of the web. At any given second, there are hundred of thousands of searches being performed by netizens all around the globe. For most of the day-to-day requirements, the general search engines suffice but they cease to be effective when it comes to technical matter. For example, for a student studying Pathology who wants to find recent developments in the field, these search engines produce satisfactory results once in a blue moon.

To tackle this problem, we require dedicated search engines for specific fields. BioAsk is a specialized search engine for Life Sciences. With BioAsk, you can discover, organize, share research knowledge and connect with the Global Research Community. It is a very sharp search engine turning up with relevant results with minimum fuss. In contrast to Kosmix, which provides comprehensive results for health related issues, with BioAsk you can search the technical aspects of a topic.

BioAsk dynamically clusters concepts and Bio-entities to find suitable resources faster. It also classifies resources by their relevance using specialization filters and 'Importance Meter'. Specialization filters help filter contents relevant to your field of interest and the Importance Meter sorts them. BioAsk has a very detailed Query Syntax and Semantics which lets us delve deep into the internet to find the most relevant results. BioAsk also provides interaction between peers without limits but you will have to register to use this option.
