The mission of those of us who work in research communication is to support the transmission of medical findings to the right people, and to support them in their decision making. In this regard, our task hasn’t changed in 300 years, since Thomas Sprat (1702) warned against the anti-scientific “false oracles” and those who argued that scientific innovation “unsettled the minds of men”. Our brave new world – of cloud computing, artificial intelligence and big data – offers us more solutions than ever before to ensure the successful communication of research.

In this webinar, Carlos Areia and Mike Taylor from Digital Science will talk about what it is to communicate research, and how new approaches will support our mission across the next decade.

The SDG Publishers Compact, signed by over 200 publishers, is a catalyst for inspiring action among publishers. Supporting the SDGs is not only a moral imperative, but also a way to maximize the impact of research on the world’s most pressing challenges. 

In this webinar, Tyler Ruse, Director of Publisher Solutions, and Michelle Herbert, Product Specialist, demonstrate how Dimensions and Altmetric can help you:

• Evaluate and analyze SDG publication output and its influence, and compare progress with competitors
• Identify regional and organizational trends and gaps in SDG-related research
• Support KPI goal setting and strategic decision-making
• Gain a 360-degree perspective of SDG research, extending beyond publication data 

Additionally, we showcase the Dimensions real-time response API, a tool that automates research classification by SDGs through supervised machine learning. The API can integrate into existing systems to support publishers at any stage of the editorial workflow.

Now, we’ve combined up-to-date Altmetric and Dimensions data to deliver charts and tables that are easy to create and share – in minutes, not hours.

In this webinar, Mike Taylor, Head of Data Insights at Digital Science, introduces our latest ‘self-service’ solution – the Journal Impact Dashboard and Benchmark Reports.

You’ll discover how to use the dashboard to generate presentation-ready charts and tables that: 

• tell your success stories
• benchmark your journal in its field of research
• illustrate your competitive landscape
