How to Search the NINDS Website

If you know a phrase to search on, type in the phrase(s) into the box and click "Go".
The search engine will search the database and return a list of results.
You may use "AND", "OR", "NOT" in between multiple words to customize your searches.

For example:

  • Tumor AND brain will return all the documents that have both of these words in their content.
  • Tumor AND NOT brain will return all documents that have the word tumor but not the word brain.
  • Tumor OR cancer will return any document that contains the term tumor or the word cancer.

  • Use "AND", "OR", and "NOT" to get better results.
  • Note that search engine is not case sensitive. For example "AND" and "and" work the same.
