Web of Science Researcher Profiles

Web of Science Researcher Profiles is the new home of Publons, making it much easier to track and manage your researcher profile in one place.  Users who already have a Publons profile can now login to webofscience.com with their existing user credentials to view, manage, and search across researcher profiles, and continue to gain recognition for their publications, peer reviews, and editorial work.

With a Web of Science Researcher Profile, you can:​

  • Get noticed by funders and potential collaborators​
    Showcase your work in a trusted database used by over 15 million researchers at more than 9,000 institutions worldwide.​
  • Get credit for all of your scholarly contributions ​
    Track your publications, citation metrics, peer reviews and journal editing work in one place to demonstrate your expertise throughout your career.​
  • Get notified when your work gets cited ​
    You’ll receive automatic citation alerts for the publications in your profile that are indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection.
  • Get a picture of your citation impact in context​
    Gain a deeper understanding of your citation impact with a profile that shows that you’re far more than just a number.​ Access your Web of Science Author Impact Beamplot, a visualization showcasing your publication and citation impact throughout your career, and include it in your CV export.
  • Get back to what matters most ​
    Save time with a profile that syncs with ORCID and exports with a few clicks so that you can focus on your research.​

RSS feeds to be sunset in September

Any existing  Web of Science “classic” RSS feeds that have continued to run will stop working in September 2022. New Web of Science does not support creating new RSS feeds. To suggest that we add RSS to new Web of Science, go to Web of Science, click the question mark icon in the bottom corner of the screen, and use the “Suggest a Feature” option.

 

Thank you for your support and feedback. Together we will bring a better Web of Science to all.
