We scout out what you need to know and make it easy to retrieve. You can carry your new research guide with you wherever you go, on your phone, laptop or tablet.

Your research travels with you, all the issue accrue into a significant library quickly. You can search anytime across multiple issues to find an author, a topic, or a journal you remember was mentioned.
- The report is usually around 50-60 pages and is easy to scroll through. You can jump around six chapters and click through to 50 specific individual topics, including new EAS research in 25 medical diagnoses and conditions like autism, cerebral palsy, stroke, and psychotherapy.
- For non-university subscribers, about 80% of articles are Open Access (free to read online or download and save). Others require a journal subscription, so readers may not be able to read beyond the abstract without other options.
- For each new article, you will find a detailed citation, a brief description and a link to its home page to download or read the full article or its abstract from the host journal.
