Web of Science Research Assistant

(Clarivate Analytics)

During a trial period from 1 to 31 October 2026, members of the University of St.Gallen have access to the Web of Science Research Assistant.

This tool supports research in various areas:

  • gaining an overview of a topic
  • searching for specific publications
  • conducting analytical research
  • starting a literature review
  • looking for experts in a field
  • finding journal recommendations

With the help of AI, the research develops from a simple query to a workflow, which can combine various of the aforementioned areas. Using the Web of Science Core Collections as its database, the Research Assistant can create structured summaries and various forms of visualisations, such as topic maps, co-citation maps, word clouds, or graphs presenting publication or citation trends over time.

Please send your feedback of the Web of Science Research Assistant to searchandfind@unisg.ch. Feed-back and usage statistics will be analysed in November, a decision on possible licensing will be made in December.
