Knowledge Dashboard


 

The "Knowledge Dashboard — powered by the Web of Science" is the premier vertical search tool available today — combining the world renowned data from the Web of Science with the powerful Collexis Knowledge Dashboard.

The Dashboard approach is "top-down" — making it easy for researchers to whittle an extensive list of references on a single topic (such as Alzheimer's Disease) down to specific, directly relevant articles. Users can browse and filter literature from some 8 million articles and 9,500 journals back to 1985 by keyword, concept, expert, journal, or location. They can use the Knowledge Dashboard to identify emerging thought leaders, top publication outlets, or research hubs -- as well as track trends and discover emerging concepts and relationships.



FEATURES

  • Each Knowledge Dashboard is custom-built to a customer’s area of interest for more streamlined searching and relevant results.
  • Provides flexible search and browse options, including MeSH concept, expert, journal, or location, using an intuitive tree-based search paradigm and tab-based interface.
  • Provides proactive suggestions about the direction of research, predicting concept relationships that have not yet appeared in the literature, but which may appear in the future.
  • Users can search by knowledge concept, freeing themselves from the usual search engine paradigm of keyword and author searching.
  • Includes specialized tools that enable targeted searches for experts, top journals, local collaborators and research centers of excellence.
  • Uses a unique trends tool to show how publications on selected topics and relationships have changed over the previous decade.
  • All searches include Web of Science content and functionality such as citation information, full-text linking, and export to bibliographic management systems such as EndNoteWeb and EndNote.

BENEFITS

  • Discover unexpected concept associations that might never emerge via standard search approaches.
  • Create novel hypotheses.
  • Identify potential collaborators and thought leaders, among emerging or established experts.
  • Target work toward publication in top, high impact journals.
  • Discover local collaborators and hubs of research excellence.
  • Pinpoint emerging and declining trends that guide research direction and promote grant acquisition.

Collexis Holdings, Inc., a leading developer of high definition search and knowledge discovery software since 1999, headquartered in Columbia, South Carolina (USA) with major operations in Cincinnati, Ohio, Geldermalsen, the Netherlands and Cologne, Germany. Collexis now offers the world’s first pre-populated professional social network for life science researchers, www.biomedexperts.com. Collexis’ proprietary technology builds conceptual profiles of text, called Fingerprints, from documents, Websites, emails and other digitized content and matches them with a comprehensive list of pre-defined “fingerprinted” concepts to make research results more relevant and efficient. This matching of concepts eliminates the ambiguity and lack of priority associated with word searches. The results are often described as “finding needles in many haystacks.” Through this novel approach, Collexis can build unique applications to search, index and aggregate information as well as prioritize, trend and predict data based on sources in multiple industries without the limitations of language or dialect. Collexis’ current clients in the public, private and academic sectors include the Mayo Clinic; Johns Hopkins University; the University of California, San Francisco; the University of South Carolina; Erasmus University Library; Bristol-Myers Squibb; Lockheed Martin; the World Health Organization; Wellcome Trust; the National Institutes of Health; and the U.S. Department of Defense. Shares of Collexis common stock are traded under the symbol CLXS on the OTC Bulletin Board (OTC BB). For more information, visit www.collexis.com.
