How do you find research materials in French

This guide addresses the question: how do you limit your search results on topics in neurohumanities & neurosciences to only get results published in France or by French researchers?

Some databases allow you to create a list of journals by country of origin, see: Journals from France

Some databases allow you to search by address of the institution of the researcher

Some databases offer content in the French language only

Almost every major science, humanities, or interdisciplinary database listed in this guide under Databases for Articles allow limiting search results to "Language: French"

The Neuro* Research tab is focused on content hosted by institutions in Europe
