I am Research Fellow at the Knowledge Media institute of the Open University in Milton Keynes, UK, where I lead the SKM3 team. I was previously Research Associate at the same university. My research focuses on Semantic Web, Research Analytics, Data Mining, and Semantic Publishing.
The SKM3 team aims at producing innovative approaches leveraging large-scale data mining, semantic technologies, machine learning and visual analytics for making sense of scholarly data and forecast research dynamics. We collaborate with major publishers, universities, and companies in the space of innovation for producing a variety of innovative services for supporting researchers, editors, and research polities makers.
