Introducing OrgReg: register of public-sector research and higher education organisations is now on-line

This represents an important step towards interoperability, as it allows users to combine organisational-level data in fast and reliable ways, for example looking at publications, patents and projects. Harmonization is achieved through the establishment of registers that provide a verified list of organisations including identifiers stable over time and across datasets. The register of public research organisations…

However, progress in the STI research field (and the  social sciences in general) depends in our view on the ability…

For that reason alone good care of data and statistics underlying these rankings is crucial. Therefore it is essential to obtain more transparency regarding both the definition of the universities and the data collection procedures that are applied in the various rankings. This one-day-course held in Leiden on 28 June, focused on definitions and data collection…
