Pure Experts Research Profile for UC Davis The Pure Experts Research Profiles for UC Davis are available at https://ucdavis.pure.elsevier.com/. The following description is from the Pure Experts product announcement: “Expert Profiler: helps institutions better expose their research history and capabilities by aggregating the ‘conceptual fingerprints’ of existing published papers. By using historic publishing and citation data to expose unique relationships among people and institutions, Expert Profiler provides senior decision makers with transparency while researchers can use it to identify others with whom to collaborate.” This resource has had several name changes--it was originally Collexis, then SciVal, and is now Pure Experts. UC Davis calls its webpage UC Davis Researchprofiles. Elsevier later took the name SciVal and created a new product with that name.
