A new version of PubMed debuted on May 18, 2020. Some enhancements include a modern interface that uses responsive design to make it as easy to access PubMed on a mobile device as a laptop. Other improved features include highlighting of search terms in the search results to facilitate scanning citations, the "Best Match" feature that brings the most relevant results to the top of the list, and the ability to create a citation formatted in the AMA, APA, MLA or NML style on the fly.
