Research Trends Research concepts that have been most significantly present over the charted period are represented in this visualization. The height of the line equals the number of publications including the concept for a particular year, so increases or decreases can be seen by topic over time. You may add and remove concepts using the checkboxes below or adjust the time period included by dragging the handles left and right.

Research Trends

Research Network The visualization below creates a map of the connections between individuals within the unit (for a department network), or between the selected researcher and their collaborators. The circles represent individual researchers and the lines connecting them represent papers that they have published together. Clicking on a circle shows a preview of the profile of that researcher below the visualization, and clicking on a line shows the publications on which the two individuals have collaborated. The visualization continues to move because it is a force-directed algorithm, constantly reshaping the visualization to find the best view. You may pause the movement by clicking anywhere in the box.
