This plugin makes citing scientific studies in an aesthetically pleasing manner much more easy.

It allows you to simply enter in PubMed IDs on the composition page and have a references list (very similar to Wikipedia’s) automatically built for you. At the moment it only supports PMIDs, but in the future will also support citation via DOI.

Features

  • Creates an input box on your post composition page where you can input PubMed IDs.
  • PubMed IDs are then stored in the database along with your post, and this data is used to create a references block at the bottom of your post.
