Enhance your researcher profiles in SciVal Experts

Do you want to facilitate collaboration across traditional disciplinary borders? Do you want to see translational research increase among your schools of medicine, engineering, arts, humanities, social sciences, and other disciplines? SciVal can help support all the researchers in your institution by prepopulating profiles with publications from Elsevier's Scopus database, integrating institutional content and enriching this information with individual researcher data.

Elsevier offers the Profile Enhancer, a module within SciVal Experts that enables your researchers to input additional content into their profiles. By helping your researchers enhance their profiles with more information on their scholarly activity, funding, intellectual property, creative works and other areas, your researchers can reveal a more comprehensive picture of their expertise and become even more discoverable by potential collaborators, both internally and externally. Administrators can also enter data on behalf of researchers.
