Web of Knowledge is now sporting several enhancements:

  • Search grant activity and funding acknowledgements in Web of Science and see where funding money is going; what research has been developed from a specific grant; and who is funding research at your institution.
  • You can access searches created with the Refine and Analyze capabilities through the Search History – and create alerts.
  • Discover an easier way to let the world know about your achievements: create new accounts. Suggest publication lists. And get metrics and data analysis for researchers at your institution, with the new ResearcherID batch upload and download Web services.
  • Personalize your view of citation relationships with enhanced citation mapping capabilities.

Some of you might also be interested in ScienceWatch.com, a website produced by the publishers of Web of Knowledge, Thomson Reuters.
