Your publishing needs met

Traditionally, an author’s impact was measured using the number of times he/she was published and the number of times his/her publications were cited by other researchers. Technology has been revolutionising academic communications.

Academic institutions encourage early career researchers like graduate students and postdocs to share their research findings by publishing articles in journals and presenting them at departmental meetings, lectures and conferences. They also recommend sharing findings with popular media (online and offline) and connect with other academics via social media and digital platforms.

Last month we revealed the hot and emerging fields in academic research, according to a report entitled Research Fronts 2020 – produced by Clarivate with the Chinese Academy of Science – and provided information on geographic and institutional performance based on the companion report Active Fields and Leading Countries.
