1. Elsevier Research Solutions Powering innovation in atomic energy research
Good morning everyone, my name is JC Heyneke and at Elsevier I’m an SVP in our Research Solutions busines. Today I want to share with you a few thoughts on how we as Elsevier are supporting innovation in atomic energy research…

9. My vantage point…
Publisher of ~25% of the world’s research output (Elsevier received >1M articles submission in 2015)
~30% of world’s research article downloads (ScienceDirect had >850M downloads in 2015)
The world’s largest abstracts and citation database (Scopus records >80K citation per day)
As one of the world’s leading science information companies we are fortunate to have a unique vantage point on the world of scientific and medical research. We publish and disseminate thousands of books and peer reviewed journals in print and electronic formats every year, and we manage terabytes of data in doing so. The science journals industry alone receives over 3.5 million article submissions globally, each one seeking to advance science in its sub-field. We co-ordinate their peer review via relationships with 300,000 expert reviewers. We accept, edit, produce, disseminate and preserve over 1.7 million articles via electronic and print journals to a worldwide audience of 30 million researchers and practitioners. They download over 2 billion articles a year. We then record the citations that are made to those articles at the rate of 80,000 per day, or 30 million per year.
By managing the inputs, interactions and outputs of the global forum in which scientists report, debate and advance research, we get to see much of what is going on in that forum. And by having access to almost every university in the world, we also get to hear much of the issues universities deal with.
While we are fortunate to have a unique vantage point, it has limitations. Our view is weighted towards basic rather than applied research, and to academic rather than commercial outputs such as patents, licenses and spin-offs. While publications and citations are widely recognised measures of output and impact, they are proxy not absolute indicators. Publication impact is certainly not the same as societal impact even though the two are often associated.

10. Fact
peer-reviewed scientific articles were published in the world last year

11. How long would it take to read everything in your field?
“…we assumed that he or she could read five papers an hour …for eight hours a day, five days a week, and 50 weeks a year… a capacity of 10 000 papers in one year. Reading all papers referring to echocardiography would take 11 years and 124 days, by which time at least 82 142 more papers would have been added…”
I realize that this is all the articles in all fields and hence not relevant to any particular researcher. So how long would it take to read everything in your specific field of research? Two researchers investigated this question in 2010 and…

13. that relevant information is not missed
And what do researchers care most about?
that relevant information is not missed
With the volume of information I’ve mentioned, the challenge that researchers care most about, is not missing out on relevant information. This is a problem that extends beyond just scientific publications and there are many great companies producing breakthrough innovations every year. On our campuses, university libraries continue to deploy new tools, technologies and methods to help researchers and students with these challenges.
