Within an individual field, however, you can search for multiple terms at the same time using a simplified boolean syntax.

The following are the available options: | ||
- | - **Boolean OR** : You can search within a single field for one term or another team simultaneously using the keyword **OR**. For example: **Lung** OR **Breast**. This will return any result containing the term Lung OR the term Breast in your specified field. | + | - **BOOLEAN OR** : You can search within a single field for one term or another team simultaneously using the keyword **OR**. For example: **Lung** OR **Breast**. This will return any result containing the term Lung OR the term Breast in your specified field. |
- | - **Boolean AND** : You can search within a single field for one term and another team simultaneously using the keyword **AND**. For example: **Lung** AND **Cancer**. This will return any result containing both the term Lung AND the term Cancer in your specified field. | + | - **BOOLEAN AND** : You can search within a single field for one term and another team simultaneously using the keyword **AND**. For example: **Lung** AND **Cancer**. This will return any result containing both the term Lung AND the term Cancer in your specified field. |
- | - **Exact Phrase** : You can search for an exact phrase using double quotes. For example, if you search for <nowiki>"Lung Cancer"</nowiki> in the cell type field, it will only match if the exact cell type <nowiki>"Lung Cancer"</nowiki> exists. This will not match the phrase **lung cancer cell line**. This is useful for matching phrases that may be sub-components of larger phrases. For example, you may want to search for <nowiki>"CAS9"</nowiki> in the enzyme field if you want only the enzyme CAS9 to show up and not the enzyme dCas9-KRAB. Searching for CAS9 without quotes would return both matches. | + | - **EXACT PHRASE** : You can search for an exact phrase using double quotes.

+ | - **WILDCARD MATCHING** : You can optionally include wildcard searches as well. For instance, if you want to match all identifiers starting with NF OR MED you can simply search for ** NF* OR MED* **. Wildcard searches do not work when the * is placed inside a set of double quotes. | ||
