in reply to Using Perl to Query PubMed

A quick search of CPAN turned up Boulder::Medline (written by Lincoln Stein in 2007) and a whole raft of Bio::Biblio::MedlineXXXX modules from Carne Draug dated this year. You might explore your options there.

Nota Bene: I am not a wet-sciences guy. The last Biology course I took was at least fourty years ago.
