Thomson Reuters Unveils InCites
The
new Web-based solution will provide users with the tools needed to
demonstrate the impact and importance of their institution's research.
It’s introduced by the Healthcare and Science business of Thomson
Reuters.
Through
InCites, Thomson Reuters aims to empower its customers with a one-stop
system to quantitatively evaluate productivity and influence in order to
make strategic decisions.
"The
launch of InCites marks another Thomson Reuters solution that was
developed in direct response to the needs of our customers," said Jim
Pringle, vice president of product development at Thomson Reuters. "More
than ever, academic and government research institutions need to
objectively quantify their research performance. Conventionally,
gathering this type of information requires extensive research and is
extremely time-consuming. Now this information can be found using one
intuitive web-based platform -- InCites."
The
solution promises to provide value through the delivery of
customer-defined datasets in a web interface for research and analysis.
The product will enable users to conduct analyses on their own
institution's productivity and benchmark its output against peers in
both a national or international context.
InCites
will also enable users to create sub-sets around entities such as
departments or authors, providing additional analysis at a local level.
Datasets derived from Web of Science include bibliographic data and
citing articles, current metrics, inbound linking to full records, and
the ability to export data and graphs.
