I am extremely glad to know that you are at RIMS.

There are number of e-resources in Medical Sciences, the first & foremost is PubMed. 

Besides, many Indian Medical/Biomedical journals are available free of cost like IJMR, the flagship journal of ICMR, "Current Science", the topmost Biomedical fortnightly journal published from Indian Academy of Science, Bangalore.

If you see the site of Indian MEDLARS Centre (The ICMR NIC Centre for BioMedical Information of the National Informatics Centre)you will get the entire list of such journals.

The WHO has several free e-resources.

The CDC (Centre for Disease Control) at Atlanta Georgia, USA has MMWR (Morbidity , Mortality Weekly Report) in the web.

You may try CAB for TDR & Absract of Hygience. They are excellent for diseases of Tropical Countries.

The WHO also has free materials on Tropical & Infectious Diseaes.

You can also try the SEAMIC (South East Asian Medical Information Centre at Japan) They have an unique publication of searching the Medical Databases, how to prepare search strategies, the boolean logics etc. etc. etc.

There are several free materials from UNAIDS & well, there is free POPLINE databasea available from the ESCAP Office located at Raja Dammam Avenue, Bangkok.
