Scholar, pubMed, Scopus, Web of Science,
SciELO, CNKI, ScienceOpen)
 Networking (Recommendations, Social
media, conferences)

In summary…
 Communication about
science should speed up
the process, not slow it
down.
 At ScienceOpen we are
building network tools to
make the communication
and evaluation of science
more efficient, more
global, and more open.
