Research Associate
I completed my MSc. in Computer Science at The University of Hertfordshire in 2016 and then joined KMi as a part of the CORE team. I completed my PhD. in 2020 and am currently a Research Associate working on the On-Merrit project looking at the Matthew Effect in Open Science and the ramifications for responsible research metrics.

Linking semantically similar publications from Open Access repositories using text mining from full-text and representing the relations as Linked Data
CORE (core.ac.uk) aims to aggregate all open access research outputs from repositories and journals worldwide and make them available to the public. In this way CORE facilitates free unrestricted access to research for all.

Web-scale research analytics for identifying high performance and trends: data-driven approaches to Scientometrics.
Over the recent years, there has been a growing interest in developing new scientometric measures that go beyond the traditional citation-Ââ€based bibliometric measures. This interest is motivated on one side by the wider availability or even emergence of new information evidencing research performance, such as article downloads, views, and twitter mentions, and on the other side by the continued frustrations and problems surrounding the application of citation-Âbased metrics to evaluate research performance in practice.
The research looks into new ways of utilizing full-Âtexts of research papers to evaluate research impact at the granularity of individual papers, researchers as well as institutions. It will consider the evolution of evidence influencing research metrics in time and the emergence of new trends and new research communities as valuable signals.

The world's largest collection of open access research papers
CORE hosts the world's largest collection of open access research outputs, which are used and referenced by people globally, including researchers, libraries, software developers, funders and many more. CORE delivers a number of key measurable benefits to institutions, repositories, and researchers through its services. The value of CORE is not only provided by its services, but mostly by helping others in the delivery of their use cases. This makes CORE an enabling infrastructure, allowing for text mining, business intelligence, compliance monitoring and research analytics.
Benefits
The CORE services:
* provide real-time machine access to metadata and full texts of research papers in CORE.
* help to download CORE data and run processes in your own infrastructure, access data across all of our data providers, prototype new methods, data analysis and text mining
* recommend papers to read based on users' interests;support users in discovering articles of interest from across the network of open access repositories
* increase the visibility of content in open access repositories and journals
* assist users in finding freely accessible copies of research papers that are often behind a paywall
* provide an online interface offering valuable technical information and statistics to content providers
We aim to:
* Support the right of citizens to access the results of research towards which they contributed by paying taxes
* Provide support to both content consumers and content providers by working collaboratively with them
* Contribute to a cultural change by promoting open access, a fast-growing movement for good
* Make use of artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques to enrich and organise research content and support users in discovering knowledge of their interest

Observing and Negating Matthew Effects in Responsible Research and Innovation Transition
ON-MERRIT targets an equitable scientific system that rewards based on merit rather than the "Matthew Effect" of cumulative advantage. The project aims to analyse the role of Matthew Effect in Open Science/RRI, and look for and test the use of new and more equitable OS/RRI indicators. Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI), including elements like Open Science and Gender Equality, promises to fundamentally transform scholarship to bring greater transparency and participation to research processes, and increase the impact of outputs. Yet just making processes open will not per se drive re-use or participation unless also accompanied by the capacity (in terms of knowledge, skills, motivation and technological readiness) to do so. ON-MERRIT will hence investigate how existing inequalities drive outcomes in the uptake of Open Science and Responsible Research and Innovation across academia, industry and policy-making. Once this evidence has been gathered, alternative policy-proposals to counteract any negative effects will be tested through modelling, and final recommendations made to policy-makers, funders and institutions.
