Why Scientists Need to Be Better at Data Visualization
Why Scientists Need to Be Better at Data Visualization
The scientific literature is riddled with bad charts and graphs, leading to misunderstanding and worse. Avoiding design missteps can improve understanding of research.
What Does Research Look Like Based on REF 2021 UoAs?

How to Get Better at Embracing Unknowns
Data-visualization techniques can clarify the uncertainty in information or make it more confusing if not implemented well.
Tracking the Growth of the PID Graph
The connections between scholarly resources generated by persistent identifiers (PIDs) and associated metadata form a graph: the PID Graph. Today we are announcing another important milestone: we added the required functionality to the DataCite GraphQL API that allows us to keep track of the growth of the PID Graph in terms of nodes (resources) and edges (connections).
