Elsevier, the information analytics company specialising in science and health, has announced a three-year collaboration with the Thai-Journal Citation Index (TCI) Centre and Thailand Research Fund (TRF) to generate exposure, improve impact and increase collaboration opportunities for Thai research.
The collaboration aims to strengthen the research capabilities and academic performance of Thai higher education institutions in a concerted drive towards Thailand 4.0, a strategic national program to transition Thailand into a value-based economy over the long term.
The three-year collaboration program will include access to Elsevier's Scopus, the world's largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature, for 35 selected Thai universities; promotion of Thai research focusing on the strategic research drivers of Thailand 4.0; specially-developed training and engagement opportunities for journal editors, researchers, policy makers, and librarians to harness value from their research workflow processes; and proactive identification, engagement, selection and evaluation of 60 journals from Thailand and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) to be indexed in Scopus database.
TRF has been supporting TCI activities since 2004 and, from 2010, co-funded access of Elsevier's Scopus database for TCI and Thai journal editors to improve Thailand's research quality and performance.
