Clarivate Publishes Report on the Importance of Subject Diversity in Research
Clarivate released “Subject Diversity in Research Portfolios” (registration required), a new Global Research report that “examines the ability of nations and institutions to respond to unexpected challenges or opportunities in science, medicine, technology and social sciences based on the diversity of their research activities and expertise.” It shows “that subject diversity provides benefit, notably in resilience and responsiveness to unexpected challenges and examines [G7 and BRICK] nations’ ability to provide for their citizens’ needs in responding to a severe unforeseen global challenge—the COVID-19 pandemic. In doing so, Clarivate identifies a new and readily usable analytical approach to evaluate the capacity and competency of research organizations and nations.”The press release continues, “The study demonstrates that diversity analysis provides a new forward-looking view of the opportunities for intellectual, and scientific evolution, in contrast to retrospective publication citation analysis, which looks back to achievement.” For more information, read the press release.
