Australasia and New Zealand – Webinars

The challenges and strategies in identifying, recruiting and retaining top research talent through the eyes of national policy makers and academic institutions.

In this webinar, our guest panel Professor Xian Jun Loh, Executive Director from the Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE), A*STAR discusses practical experiences of performing and supporting use-inspired basic research, involving a personal journey from material discovery to biomedical applications.

In today’s competitive research landscape, researchers are finding it more challenging than ever to identify the right partners and after doing so, securing the grants needed to see their research project through. Research administrators are also pressed to show the returns on research investments and provide key bibliographic data to support management teams and faculty leaders in making important research strategy decisions.

This webinar will include a live demonstration of various API’s and specific use cases. The live demonstrations of API’s will cover:

• Research Assessment
• Policy formation and tracking
• Funding Evaluation

Clarivate hosted an insightful Q&A discussion with Dr Gali Halevi, the new Director at the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) who shared her ideas and insights on the challenges faced by researchers and organisations working toward inclusive research across diverse groups.

APIs, or Application Programming Interfaces, don’t have to be unapproachable for the data-minded librarian or researcher. This session is intended to provide an introduction to APIs as well as suggest practical methods to get started using APIs.

At Clarivate, we are committed to supporting the research community’s efforts to practice research more responsibly, and to promoting more responsible use of metrics in research evaluation. Research integrity in publishing is an important topic that is not often taught to researchers through their institution or by publishers. Although it is an important topic to help researchers improve their skills and knowledge, making them better researchers, peer reviewers and journal editorial board members.

The Journal Citation Reports (JCR)™ from Clarivate is the world’s most authoritative source for transparent, publisher-neutral data and statistics. Nearly 50 years into its run, it continues to evolve, adapting to the changing landscape of scholarly publishing and evaluative metrics. In this webinar, we will discuss the 2021 JCR release, featuring the latest refinements and additions to the journal intelligence platform’s existing store of resources.

Following best practices for research evaluation can be complex, and sometimes seem impossible at scale. Every researcher, librarian, research office, institution, funder, and government department has a role to play in improving the current research culture and academic rewards system. To support the research community to practice more responsible research evaluation, we’re excited to introduce Web of Science™ Author Impact Beamplots.

InCites Benchmarking and Analytics™ has long offered multiple classification schema, and now provides Citation Topics: a new way for you to view research based on the citation relationships between documents. We’ve sorted out the world’s research—down to the paper level—so that you can:

• Quickly identify subject matter experts working on the specific research topics you care about to inform strategic partnership and recruitment decisions.
• Benchmark your research against peers who work on the same research problems, instead of just those who publish in similar journals.
• Easily understand which specific lines of inquiry are driving the strengths within your organisation’s research portfolio.

On 18 November 2020, the Highly Cited Researchers™ (HCRs) list was revealed. Fewer than 0.1%, of the world's researchers, across 21 research fields, have earned the exclusive Highly Cited Researcher distinction. Australia continues to do well placing 5th in the world by region. The total count of HCRs in Australia increased by 34 which is a 12.5% increase on last year’s count. New Zealand increased by a total of 6 HCRs this year (totaling 18) placing them 27th in the world by region. To celebrate watch the on-demand webinar where we delve into the data behind Highly Cited Researchers in Australia and New Zealand.

The inaugural Clarivate event on 25 November 2020 presented how the collective actions from key stakeholders across the research system are tackling the challenges and capturing opportunities to improve research integrity in Australia and worldwide.

The Web of Science has identified a growing number of research articles with 1,000 or more unique authors across more than 100 different countries. The combination of many authors/many countries creates a complex authorship pattern that differs from more typical academic papers and drives elevated citation rates. Find out how the dynamic or author number on manuscripts is changing and how these changes should be considered when conducting bibliometric analysis.

Twelve researchers from seven New Zealand institutions have been named Highly Cited Researchers for 2019. Australian research institutes continue to impress with the number of researchers recognised as Highly Cited more than tripling in six years, from 80 in 2014 to 271 in 2019. Australian research institutions appear to have recruited a significant number of Highly Cited Researchers since 2014 while also increasing their number of homegrown Highly Cited Researchers.

Web of Science is constantly updating with new functionality. A newly enhanced Author Search intuitively guides you to ‘Author Records’ that provide a set of publications linked to a single person. This new search will help you easily find your researchers and their publications in Web of Science Core Collection – regardless of how common their name or how their name may be presented in different publications over time. Search for a name and find a person.

In celebration of Open Access week, we explore the publication trends in Open Access publishing as well as the trends in bibliometric impact that different types of Open Access publication possess.
