Thomson Reuters Partners With CABI to Expand Life Sciences Content
The Healthcare and Science business of Thomson Reuters (www.thomsonreuters.com) announced that ISI Web of Knowledge now includes Global Health and the Global Health Archive from CABI (www.cabi.org). The comprehensive database of public health information will provide users with global and regional public health coverage. The companies says this brings together all of CABI’s core products on the ISI Web of Knowledge platform for the first time, giving researchers powerful tools to exploit the public health database.Derived from more than 3,500 journals, plus reports, books and conferences, Global Health contains more than 1.2 million scientific records from 1973 to the present and more than 90,000 records are added each year. The addition of these records provide users access to weekly content updates, the ability to detect emerging trends to pursue successful research and grant acquisition, and help to identify potential collaborators through their publication records. ISI Web of Knowledge (http://isiwebofknowledge.com), an integrated, versatile research platform, delivers easy access to high quality, diversified scholarly information in the sciences, social sciences, and arts and humanities, as well as search and analysis tools that enhance this content. The platform provides users the ability to search the right content and find relevant information for discovery and research evaluation—whether that information is found in international journals, open access resources, books, patents, or proceedings. CABI is a not-for-profit, science-based development and information organization with nine centers worldwide. CABI’s mission and direction are influenced by its 44 member countries that help guide the organization’s activities. Source: Thomson Reuters
