Best Practices in Research Evaluation Using Modern Bibliometrics Tools like InCites
Research evaluation using modern bibliometric tools like InCites is crucial for assessing the overall scientific impact of research, identifying emerging trends within various fields, and measuring the productivity of individual researchers, institutions, and journals.
By leveraging advanced bibliometric tools and metrics, such as citation analysis, category normalized citation impact, collaboration metrics , evaluators can gain a deeper understanding of how research contributes to the advancement of knowledge, the influence it has on other scientific work, and its broader societal reach.
In this webinar, Clarivate experts will elucidate best practices in research evaluation and underscore how this data-driven approach ensures more objective and evidence-based decision-making in research funding, resource allocation, and policy development.
