Research (management) matters a lot!
<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The last year and a half has shown how crucial science is for every one of us: the rapid response of the research world has not only led to COVID-19 vaccines in record time, but has also helped to optimise the care given in hospitals, the mental health challenges of lockdown, as well as helping policymakers address the economic challenges created by the crisis. Some of the technologies being used to combat COVID-19, such mRNA vaccine platform, result not from research done last year but long-term investment from thousands of researchers around the world. While vaccines have been produced by biotech and pharma companies, academic research over decades laid the foundation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Katalin Karik\u00f3, who works at the University of Pennsylvania and BioNTech, has spent decades of her research career developing mRNA approaches for vaccination. As noted in a recent story in the New York Times<\/a>, and is so often the case, she carried out her work without massive institutional support from universities at which she has worked. Despite that, her research has become a critical factor in the fight against COVID-19.  Many will owe their lives to the innovation that she has pioneered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her story has a happy ending (for all of us) but how many important or potentially life-changing research ideas get lost in the academic machine? How should universities go about detecting, supporting and developing ideas that might be not the norm? Creating the right environment to foster and develop ideas is at the centre of what universities and research institutes do, but it is not easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Digital Science and Dimensions, we get up every day to work with the global academic community to provide the best, most diverse data that we can find, and bring that together with the most flexible tools that we can imagine to support our partners.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

…and, if you share the belief that tools like ours can make the difference, this is where you come in!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dimensions<\/a> goes beyond the standard paradigm of looking at publications and citations to allow a user to create a broader context of research. We believe that better context leads to better decisions. Dimensions embodies that belief – drawing together and linking grants, patents, policy documentation, research datasets, publications and citations – to create a truly holistic view of research. Created with analysis in mind, Dimensions has an easy to use interface for simple everyday use cases for researchers and administrators together with unrivalled tools to connect Dimensions data to dashboarding and analysis tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
