SciVal Experts
Aggregating individual fingerprints across organizational units allows for the organization to know what individuals know and what groups know together…
• What new publications and grants have been produced?
• What trends have emerged over time?
• Who is working together? • With what other organizations
(internal and external) are we collaborating?
• What do we know?
