Openness in research is essential, but it is not enough. In a recent blog post, Simon Porter, VP of Research Futures at Digital Science, explained why institutions also need robust, scalable infrastructure that ensures data quality, transparency, and usability across the entire research lifecycle. At Dimensions, we have long believed that open, connected research data is key. Read our latest blog, based on Porter's piece, to explore why combining open principles with reliable analytics infrastructure is critical for universities and research organizations to build confidence in their data, strengthen decision-making, and support long-term research strategy: https://lnkd.in/edxuPisy #AcademicResearch, #ResearchImpact, #ResearchData, #OpenScience
