UCC Library: Measuring your Publications' Impact: Publons

Publons Researcher Profiles

Publons is a new service from Clarivate Analytics since 2019, which brings publications’ listings, citation metrics, peer reviews and journal editing work into one profile. A large part of Publons is derived from ResearcherID profiles which authors could previously set up in Web of Science.
