The Academy of Finland (AKA), Finland's major public research funding agency, uses a Web of Science (WoS) based bibliometric indicator to assess the performance of research it has funded. CRIS-based publication data can support multidimensional assessments of research performance and scholarly communication profiles, potentially also in other countries and institutions.

UC Berkeley scientists and students looked at current artificial intelligence translation systems and found that, though flawed, they have become good enough for researchers to broadly translate their work into other languages, at least the languages of the coauthors and the country in which the research was conducted. One problem: how to get permissions to translate and share, and where will these translations live online.
After Russia's invasion, politicians promised to boost military research funding - but policy specialists aren't convinced that a rapid change lies ahead.
The most powerful rocket ever developed by the US space agency is being rolled to the launch pad.
We hastily dispose of dead whales, ignoring the ecological significance of their carcasses.
The recently passed CHIPS and Science Act promises billions of dollars in funding to support science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) research and production at government agencies, private companies, and colleges and universities across the U.S. It also includes provisions to increase diversity in STEM education and the workforce and to promote socioeconomic development for underserved communities.
