Research talks will now feed into Altmetric Attention Scores, giving universities and publishers a broader view of how scholarly work is discussed.

Merely appearing useful – versus being reliable, credible or provable – are different things, writes Kate Byrne

Research discussed in a Cassyni talk now counts towards the paper’s Altmetric Attention Score.

Six proteomic clocks are applied in a clinical trial to assess anti-aging effects.

This research output is being tracked across social media, newspapers and reference managers by Altmetric.

Elastocaloric cooling in shape memory alloy films is efficient but limited by electrically powered actuators. Here the authors demonstrate a heat-driven system that achieves a temperature span of up to 12.9 K (4.0 K at device level), showing that waste heat can be used for electricity-minimized cooling.

New academic evaluation indicators such as altmetrics have become crucial for measuring the social impact of research. We explore the association between Open Peer Review (OPR) and the altmetric attention performance of academic papers by selecting 35,852 research papers from Nature Commun...
