Learning Objectives

Following this session, participants will be able to understand:

the new venues in which research is being developed
the variety of services to which researchers are turning for help
the evolving ways in which research outputs are being evaluated.

Abstract

This session will explore social research networks and services that help researchers to maximize the reach/impact of their work, from language editing and submission guidance, to profiles and commentary. We’ll review the evolving metrics landscape and consider how broader research ‘venues’ and ‘outputs’ will further change how research is evaluated.
