Envision Pharma Group ('Envision'), a Medical Affairs-focused scientific communications and technology solutions provider, has announced that Library – Envision's searchable content management system for Medical Affairs materials, including publications and multimedia – will now feature attention data provided by data science company Altmetric.
The 'impact' of a peer-reviewed publication is an integral part of the assessment of the effectiveness of an individual publication or cumulatively, of a publication plan. While citations have long been considered the standard measure of publication impact, they may on occasions take months or years to emerge. The shift to an online publication environment and the rise of social media have allowed the real-time assessment of indicators of dissemination (eg, via Twitter), interest (eg, news coverage), and readership (eg, Mendeley). Envision has partnered with Altmetric to facilitate access to these informative data via the Library content management solution – part of the expanding iEnvision suite of medical project management software solutions.
Fully integrated into the publication details held within Library, Altmetric badges and associated attention scores provide constantly updated, at-a-glance indicators of the engagement relating to published articles, and permit click-through-access to the Altmetric.com website for more detailed information on the demographic, geographic, and contextual nature of these data.
Library is built on the iEnvision™ Medical Project Management platform, purpose-built to meet the needs of Medical Affairs and related functions. Library can be fully integrated with current versions of Datavision® (publications management), as well as other third-party and corporate applications.
