These upcoming sessions are aimed at the entire university community, research staff, librarians, and institutions that are part of the national license for Web of Science. The registration period has just opened for the online training, which will begin on Tuesday, May 19, 2026, and end on Thursday, May 21 of the same month.

Web of Science automatically creates a researcher profile for each author who has published in a journal in the Core Collection. This profile includes information such as their publications, affiliations, and peer reviews performed. Each researcher can validate their profile to improve its content and associated bibliometric indicators.
