Dear Campus Community,


Do you know “Over 43% of ISI papers has never received any citations?” (nature.com/top100, 2014). Publishing a high-quality paper in scientific journals is only halfway towards receiving the citation in the future. The rest of the journey is dependent on disseminating the publications via proper utilization of the “Research Tools”. Proper tools allow the researchers to increase the research impact and citations for their publications. These workshop series will provide various techniques on how one can increase the visibility and enhance the impact of one’s research work.
