Collexis: Advancing Collaboration

Collexis is a new research collaboration system that is being used jointly by Henry Ford Health System and Wayne State University. This system enables researchers to find potential collaborators within our organizations and makes it easy to find out who the experts are and what they have published. The expert profile or “fingerprint” also includes all NIH grant funding information. This information is imported from the NIH Reporter database. Collexis does have future plans of including other funding agencies as well. Each researcher’s profile includes a dynamic graphic representing their collaboration network and an interactive image of research trends.
