How can I reduce the administrative burden of research information management?
Centralize data ingestion from an unparalleled range of sources, providing a singular hub to build a truly comprehensive view of all your institutional data and research activities.
By maximizing data reuse with a continuously, automated capture of research output data you can:
- Minimize the time that faculty members spend completing annual reviews.
- Simplify the funding workflow by managing the full research funding lifecycle within one cloud-hosted system
- Showcase research achievements and impact
Faculty need only spend perhaps less than an hour a year to prepare and submit their annual reports

How do I support more open and flexible research management?
Ensure your infrastructure can meet the ever-growing demands for all research to become open, FAIRer and more connected.
Implement a trusted and reliable institutional repository to share, showcase and manage all of your research outputs.
Figshare is easy to use, and easy to train researchers to use. We needed a platform that would not be a burden on their already scarce time, and that would be straightforward to add to our skill and training programme.

How can I enable my researchers to better collaborate?
Take academic research collaboration to the next level with Papers. Trusted by millions of users and used across thousands of academic institutions since 2010, Papers literature management solution helps teams collaborate with private shared libraries and annotations, citation tools, admin dashboards, and easy access to live trainings.
Help your researchers stay in sync and one step ahead with Papers’ centralized, smart reference library solution.
The best features of papers are the intuitive interface, the collaborative shared library, the ease of creating bibliographies, and the annotation tools. The desktop and web versions work very nicely together and the Match feature works very well too.

Overleaf is the writing platform loved by students and researchers. It lets them write, edit, teach, and collaborate in a platform that’s designed with them in mind.
It’s powered by LaTeX, a coding language that makes short work of producing perfectly formatted formulas, tables, figures, bibliographies, and more.
More than that, Overleaf is collaborative by design. With commenting, real-time track changes, document history, clever integrations, and more, it makes writing together easier, whether that’s a student working with their professor or a research group collaborating with another organization.
How can I make it easier for my researchers to communicate their findings?
Researchers can write better, faster, and with confidence, using AI tools that deliver everything from advanced language edits to research-tailored paraphrasing.
Writefull offers a suite of AI solutions for academic writing. This can help researchers communicate their work more clearly, and help decrease time to publication. Writefull’s AI language edits meet the rigor of the world’s leading scholarly publishers, some of whom use Writefull to copy edit manuscripts.
