Midwestern launches public research profiles through Symplectic Elements
Thursday 25 July 2024
Digital Science, a technology company serving stakeholders across the research ecosystem, is pleased to share the news that Midwestern University has successfully launched a new faculty profiles portal powered by Symplectic Elements.
Midwestern has been utilizing Symplectic Elements as its Research Information Management System since 2019, and has made the decision to expand its use by adding public profiles. The faculty profiles repurpose the comprehensive data already within Elements to populate enhanced profiles, including biographical information as well as their publications, grants and professional and teaching activities.
Midwestern’s faculty profiles currently include more than 2,700 faculty members, which can be filtered by campus, academic degree program, availability and department. The profiles enhance the discoverability of Midwestern’s research and impact, giving faculty a simple and visible way to share and showcase their work, build new research collaborations, and connect with new students, industry professionals, or the media.
